We are joined by Defector's own Maitreyi Anantharaman to talk about the Malik Beasley indictment, Jalen Duren's future with the Pistons, and Jaylen Brown's battle with advanced analytics. Then we switch over to the W and run through the big storylines of the season's first chunk, including Olivia Miles' early success, Valk Nation continuing to flourish into a legit contender, and a recent episode of the Caitlin Clark media circus saga.
