Welcome to The Phonetic: An audio sports storytelling experience.

My name is Jake Fischer. I'm a writer and producer at Sports Illustrated. In today's ever-changing media landscape, everyone has a podcast. But few, if any, use the growing medium to produce original storytelling. I will use this space to recreate all of my upcoming written work phonetically, through sound. Thank you for listening, I hope you enjoy and please send any feedback you have to [email protected].

Today's episode is the audio book version of my SI.com The Crossover story (on.si.com/2iEIQd8) detailing enigmatic center JaVale McGee's resurrection with the Golden State Warriors this season. He's become one of the most entertaining subplots in the NBA.
