The Jimmy Butler saga takes center stage this week on Hold My Banner. What’s really going on between Butler, Pat Riley, and the Miami Heat? Is a trade coming soon, and why has this situation been dragging on? Travis and Ountae break it all down and discuss what’s next for Jimmy Buckets and the Heat.

Then, the guys shift gears to recap the Boston Celtics’ dramatic 117-113 overtime win over the Los Angeles Clippers. Travis takes a nostalgic trip with a special flashback segment, while previewing the Celtics’ next matchup against the Dallas Mavericks.

In Wicked Or Kick It, it’s all about judging NBA fashion. This week, the hosts review the latest outfits from Chris Paul, Anthony Edwards, and Victor Wembanyama. Will they give them the thumbs up, or are they kicking them to the curb?

The NBA MVP Ladder is also on the agenda. With the season halfway through, Travis and Ountae share their top 5 MVP picks. Is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander running away with the award? Does Giannis still dominate both ends of the floor? The MVP conversation heats up!

For the NBA League Pass Game to Watch, Ountae is keeping an eye on Rockets at Cavaliers, while Travis is all about Kings at Knicks—two exciting matchups you won’t want to miss.

Finally, Travis closes with a take that will leave you thinking: For the first time ever, he's agreeing with Draymond Green about the Jordan Poole drama. Poole’s been getting attention for all the wrong reasons, and Travis has some thoughts on why he needs to step up.

Tune in for all this and more on Hold My Banner, hosted by Travis Thomas & Ountae Campbell! Catch 'Hold My Banner every Wednesday and Friday on NESN's Youtube, Twitch, and wherever you listen to podcasts.
