3x NBA All-Star John Wall joins Draymond Green and Baron Davis to chop it up about untold stories of his battles with Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls, what really happened in Houston with the Rockets, and the truth about his time with the Wizards—including the draft mistakes that cost them Klay Thompson, who wound up on the Golden State Warriors. The trio dives deep into the evolution of the NBA, discussing whether superstar players are scared of the Dunk Contest, the struggles of the NBA All-Star Game, and the importance of mentorship for young players. Wall also reveals his thoughts on NIL deals, his all-time Top 5 No. 1 Draft Picks since 2010, and whether he’s planning an NBA comeback.
