This week we got a legend on the pod as Hall of Famer Alex English joins Q and D on Knuckleheads. One of the best players in Nuggets history looks back on his journey in South Carolina, growing up in a segregated South, staying home in Colombia for college, and setting all the Gamecock records. He talks about what the draft process was like in the ’70s, finally landing in Denver after not playing in his early seasons, and how it felt to become one of the best players in the league. We got one of the most underrated players ever — tune in!
