About this episode
Adam Mares and Marc Stein break down the biggest NBA storylines, starting with Jayson Tatum’s return and what his first games back mean for the Boston Celtics. They discuss whether Boston should now be considered the favorites, how the conversation around the team has shifted with Tatum back in the lineup, and whether there are any concerns about fit as the Celtics push toward the playoffs. The episode also explores whether Boston can catch the Detroit Pistons for the No. 1 seed, Cooper Flagg’s return from injury and the Rookie of the Year race, and what Stein is watching for from Flagg down the stretch. They close by looking at draft lottery implications if the Dallas Mavericks land a top pick and whether the Milwaukee Bucks are beginning to wave the white flag. A must-watch for NBA fans tracking contenders, the MVP and ROY races, and the biggest storylines shaping the playoff picture.
