    Y’all do the best job out of the basketball podcasts to take players from the beginning of their basketball journey to the end. I really appreciate y’all asking the questions about their high school careers, recruitment process, all-star camp appearances. That’s really how you realize the universe that the player played in. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard someone say they were at camps with such and such player, or they played high school or AAU with such and such player, and I go “damn, I didn’t realize they were in the same recruiting class as him!” Keep it up! And D. Miles, you’ve gotten so much better. You’re a pro at this now!
