NBA All Star LIVE with Brandon Jennings

Dawg Talk goes live in Los Angeles for All-Star Weekend with J Mac and two-time champion Kentavious Caldwell-Pope hosting in front of a packed crowd. KCP talks about the love-hate relationship with Lakers fans, what LA means to him, and why pressure comes with wearing purple and gold. Special guest Brandon Jennings pulls up to talk Detroit memories with KCP, the reality of hoop culture in LA, and the decision that changed his life: going overseas out of high school. He opens up about faith, losing his dad young, getting humbled in Europe, and why taking risks can open doors for the next generation. The crew also gets into All-Star format opinions, the three-point contest picks, NIL and money management for young players, what went wrong for Milwaukee after the championship, and where Giannis might fit if he ever gets moved.
