Summary

On this edition of The Will Cain Show’s Friday sports episode, Will is joined by 'Sports Illustrated' Senior Writer and NBA Analyst, Chris Mannix to break down the evolving landscape of the NBA, the rise of parity, and whether the Oklahoma City Thunder are building a quiet dynasty. Will and Mannix also dive into the Mavericks’ shocking lottery win and what Cooper Flagg’s arrival could mean for Dallas’s future. They debate the long-term ceiling of Flagg, whether he'd be worth trading for a proven star like Giannis Antetokounmpo, and how today's NBA front offices are starting to think in windows, not dynasties. They finish it all off with an expert level NBA trivia quiz that will have you questioning your knowledge of the Association. Can you do better than Will and Mannix?
