Going ISO - Kevin Willis - a podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Noah Coslov, Adam Stanco

Rejecting the Screen goes ISO with Kevin Willis, one of the longest tenured players in NBA history. The 1992 NBA All-Star talks about the remarkable amount of weight he's bench pressing at 57-years old, his relationship with David Stern, remembering Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady as rookies, and playing in MTV's Rock N' Jock Game with Leonardo DiCaprio. Kevin explains what it was like to play alongside some of the greatest players of all-time during over 20 seasons in the NBA and tells fascinating stories, including how Magic Johnson helped recruit him to Michigan State, finding out he made the 1992 NBA All-Star Game, and how he celebrated winning the 2003 NBA Championship.
