Nostalgia and Future of the Harlem Globetrotters

In this episode of The Deal, Alex Rodriguez and Jason Kelly discuss the conclusion of the Paris Olympics and the big wins for USA basketball. They also interview Keith Dawkins, president of the Harlem Globetrotters and Herschend Entertainment Studios, about how he is reinvigorating the 98-year-old exhibition basketball icon. Dawkins also tells the hosts about how he’s pivoting from a tour-based to media-based business model, how he quickly negotiated the first-ever residency for a sports team and why having the right people on your bench makes all the difference.
