Joining SI’s Chris Mannix this week is Gary Washburn, senior NBA writer at the Boston Globe and co-author of The Spencer Haywood Rule: Battles, Basketball, and the Making of an American Iconoclast. Mannix and Washburn discuss Washburn’s three months in the NBA bubble, the impact of the NBA’s embracing of the social justice movement, the impact on LeBron James’s legacy and more. Plus a deep dive into Gary’s new book on Haywood, an influential figure in the early NBA whose impact is still being felt to this day.
