Austin and Pausha kick things off by talking about Ja Morant’s ridiculous layups against the Lakers last night, which reminded us why we’ve missed him so much (1:16). Then, they discuss Darius Garland and the surging Cleveland Cavaliers (11:59), the surprising start for Cam Thomas and the Brooklyn Nets (14:48), and Zaccharie Risacher, who's providing even more hope for the Atlanta Hawks (22:55). Finally, with the Warriors’ early-season success, they break down how much depth is necessary for teams to compete at the next level (40:24).
