Shoot Hoops
by Adam Brazil
Shoot Hoops is a podcast centered around the beautiful game of basketball; everything from high school hoops to AAU to the NCAA (D1, D2, D3, JuCo) to the WNBA and the NBA. Special guests share their basketball journeys and best hoops stories to start. Later, we trade opinions and hot takes on different levels of the game. With each new guest comes a new set of questions and answers, allowing for myself and the listeners of Shoot Hoops to learn more about basketball as a whole; the X’s and O’s, basketball history, statistics, teamwork, perseverance, leadership, passion, and hard work.
