Johnny Manziel and Denver Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr. sit down on Glory Daze for a conversation every sports fan will want to hear. They cover everything from the pressures of early fame to Porter’s recent comments on gambling, and what it’s really like to be judged when the whole world is watching. Manziel opens up about the whirlwind of becoming “Johnny Football,” the money, the attention, and the mistakes that came with it. Porter Jr. dives into his own journey — the surgeries, the doubt, the comeback — and how he’s handled the spotlight as one of the NBA’s brightest young stars.

The two also break down what it takes to compete at the highest level. Porter shares stories about facing off with LeBron James, dominating the Lakers, and the mindset that fueled Denver’s historic NBA Championship run alongside Nikola Jokić. From locker room stories to life lessons, Manziel and Porter give fans a rare look at the reality behind the headlines. This is more than just a sit-down — it’s two athletes comparing notes on fame, pressure, and chasing greatness.
