Bucks beat reporter for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Jim Owczarski, joins Marques and Kris this week to break down the Bucks draft picks, AJ Johnson and Tyler Smith. Marques does some reporting of his own and shares a revealing conversation he had with first round pick AJ Johnson's high school basketball coach. After getting into Jim's love for Wu-Tang Clan, the three of them discuss Giannis' return to live game action in the last warm-up game before Greece begins their win-or-go-home Olympic qualifying tournament. Marques can't help but share a hilarious story about the time Kris tried to punk Kobe in a pick-up game and learned a valuable lesson about messing with the Mamba. And who better to discuss Bronny joining his father on the Lakers than the only father and son duo to ever win a national championship at the same college? Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your sense of humor) Marques recalls the time he was subject to a strange incident of nepotism while visiting the doctor. The podcast wraps with a discussion of Jim's longform feature report on the Wisconsin roots of basketball's point forward position, with Marques insisting he get his due credit for inventing the term.
