Prime Cuts - Buss Family SELLS Lakers, KD’s Preferred Destination Caitlin Clark Exceeding Expectation, Ja Morant A “Cautionary Tale”

Colin’s top takes of the week!

First, Colin’s joined by Nick Wright, host of “First Things First” on FS1!

They start with the major breaking news that the Buss family has sold the Los Angeles Lakers at a $10 billion dollar valuation, and why it’s a massive positive for the Lakers to no longer be a mom & pop operation (3:00). They compare and rank the biggest brands in American sports (13:00), and argue that star players under contract can do as much for a valuation as the brand’s legacy.

They pivot to Caitlin Clark and debate whether the media is UNDERRATING her superstardom and how great she will become on the court (15:30). Then, he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight”, to break down other top NBA storylines.

They discuss what to make of Ja Morant’s future as his trajectory is pointing down (31:00), and explain why Morant is a cautionary tale (35:45). 

Finally, they react to the reports that Kevin Durant prefers the Spurs as a trade destination and debate whether it’d be the best fit out of his potential suitors (40:00).
