NBA Trade Season, Rookie Reality & Who’s For Real with Ahmad K. Smith

from Show About Sports · host Griffin Prock

NBA trade season is officially here, and nothing is more fascinating (or confusing) than what comes next — so I brought in Ahmad K. Smith to help sort through it all.   We start with the Trae Young trade chatter and what it says about the broader market as the deadline approaches.   From there, we check in on this rookie class: who’s lived up to the hype, who’s surprised us, and who still has more to show.   Then it’s contenders vs pretenders — which teams are actually built to make a run, and which ones might be fooling us with early-season results.   We also dig into the most surprising storyline developing so far this season, and what it might mean as the NBA calendar really starts to heat up.   Trade season, rookie reality, and who’s for real — all in one episode.   Make sure to follow us on Threads / Instagram for even more daily sports content!   Threads: @griffin_prock Instagram: @griffin_prock Threads: @akisnba_ Instagram: @akisnba   As always, thank you for the support!   Cheers!
