Harry Runs in Style(s), Serena Splurges (on a WNBA Team), and LeBron Calls Out the Haters Ft. Lexie Brown

Listen Later

Commentators nationwide took a hard look in the mirror when LeBron called out the “weird energy” in sports media, where coverage of NBA players is nothing but negative. Seattle Storm player Lexie Brown joins us in the studio to chat about how that negativity led her to delete her Twitter, how she trained her brain to always see the positive, and why she finally took her own mental health seriously, thanks in part to a partnership with Love, Your Mind. 


In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:


  • Why one NFL team’s treatment of families was deemed “almost disrespectful” 
  • Whether Travis will keep giving Swifties a reason to pay attention to the NFL 
  • Who Simone Biles gave a heartwarming shout out to 
  • Our top Send Its of the week, including Coco Gauff and Timothée Chalamet matching at the Oscars, Serena trading tennis for basketball, and Paul George’s retirement from podcasting
