:: ::

Adam Stanco & Noah Coslov go ISO with New Zealand Breakers CEO Matt Walsh. The former NBA player talks about his high school days, playing in a highly publicized game against LeBron James and regularly battling with Kyle Lowry. He provides fascinating insight about his time as a star at Florida, including playing with the freshman class of Al Horford, Joakim Noah, and Corey Brewer, explaining why Billy Donovan is a special coach, and sharing the most outrageous taunts the Kentucky crowd hurled his way. He recollects taking the Miami Heat conditioning test, experiencing Gary Payton trash talk, getting cut by Pat Riley, and struggling to get paid by shady pro teams in Europe. He details how he came to own NZ Breakers, what New Zealand got right in nearly eradicating COVID, and how he recruited (and eventually landed) U.S. high school superstar RJ Hampton. He provides detailed scouting reports on NBL players and future lottery picks Hampton and LaMelo Ball. He also tells some wild stories about Sunday dinners at the Playboy Mansion and golfing with Barack Obama.
