#168 - TURN Sports: Chatting Everything Basketball with Lawrence Dushenski!
“It’s great to see how much the CEBL (Canadian Elite Basketball League) is growing… and considering the WNBA game in Edmonton sold out to 16,000… the CEBL in Calgary at the Saddledome to 12,000… basketball is big in Alberta,” - Lawrence Dushenski
Lawrence Dushenski is a distinguished lawyer and dedicated basketball coach based in Edmonton. Lawrence currently coaches and brings his expertise to Jasper Place High School, and the Goodhoops basketball club, shaping the future of young athletes. With a rich background including a tenure at TSN in Toronto, Lawrence is not only a seasoned professional but also an avid sports fan. Lawrence joins TURN Sports Navin Ramharak to discuss all things basketball, including the WNBA and its growth, thoughts on the NBA playoffs, thoughts on the upcoming Paris Olympics, the Canadian Elite Basketball League and much more in this episode.
At the beginning of their discussion, Lawrence and Navin talk about his journey in sports so far (1:24) his Caitlin Clark jersey and his thoughts on the WNBA and the game that was held in Edmonton (3:42), the number 1 sporting event he has attended so far (5:47), what’s on his bucket list for sporting events (6:34), thoughts on USA basketball at the Paris Olympics (7:55), who is Lawrence’s greatest of all time in sports (9:49), and whether the Pacer’s should have fouled up 3 in the final minutes of Game 1 in the Eastern Conference Finals (11:32). Lawrence and Navin then share their opinions on who they think is better between Luka Doncic and Anthony Edwards (13:42), who they would rather start a franchise with (14:47), Michael Jordan vs. LeBron James (15:58), Lawrence’s pick for the NBA Western Conference Finals (19:00), their picks for who should start for Team USA Basketball (20:08), any potential prospects in the NCAA who should get an opportunity with Team USA (23:55), and their thoughts on the All-NBA selections (25:32). Next Lawrence and Navin take a dive into the CEBL (27:56), the Ringer’s top 25 NBA players under 25 (31:08), the Atlanta Hawks new assistant General Manager being from Edmonton (35:51), and their thoughts on the LaMelo Ball situation (38:04).
