Holiday Greetings and Insights into G League Life

Howard Beck is joined by The Ringer’s Tyler Parker to discuss the NBA Christmas Day schedule and why the Thunder are not playing that day (5:30). Then they discuss Tyler’s experience at the NBA Cup and whether he had any takeaways from the Thunder’s Finals loss against the Bucks. They wrap up by comparing this iteration of the Thunder to past teams (39:00) and quickly giving their thoughts on the new All-Star game format (1:06:10). Howard is then joined by two-time NBA dunk contest champion and reigning G-League MVP Mac McClung to get into his experiences as a two-way player on the Orlando Magic (1:17:24). They also talk about what it’s like to have that documented on “The Break”. Mac later touches on whether he’ll be defending his dunk contest title again.
