Episode Description

Episode 36 of Basketball Now & Then spotlights elite shooting with a smooth comparison between Klay Thompson and Chris Mullin, two players who mastered the art of scoring without dominating the ball. Catch. Rise. Splash. Efficiency at its finest.

The hosts explore how Mullin’s fundamentals, footwork, and sharpshooting made him one of the most reliable scorers of his era. Then there’s Klay, a modern marksman known for his quick release, off-ball movement, and ability to erupt for points in a hurry. Similar precision, different pace. One thrived in a structured system, the other in a motion offense built around spacing and volume shooting.

What connects them? Pure shooting touch. By linking Mullin’s consistency to Klay’s explosive scoring bursts, Basketball Now & Then continues its mission of bridging generations, proving that great shooters, no matter the era, always find their rhythm.
