Stephen Curry out, Sixers/Timberwolves suspensions, early season surprises - a podcast by Kurt Helin, NBC Sports

There is no easing into the NBA season. One week into the grind we have Stephen Curry with a fractured hand (on a block/charge play worth discussing), which is bad news but clarifies the path forward in Golden State. Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns are suspended (this was recorded before the news came down, but we discuss situation). And the first week saw surprises — players such as Trae Young in Atlanta, and Pascal Siakam in Toronto, and teams like Miami is playing well and Sacramento... what happened to them? Keith Smith from Yahoo Sports joins Kurt Helin of NBC Sports to break down the wild first week of the season.
