On this absolutely jam-packed edition of the Kevin O’Connor Show, ESPN’s Bobby Marks *and* college basketball guru John Fanta drop by to talk basketball. First, front office insider Marks is asked if he thinks the Memphis Grizzlies are the secret team in the race for Jimmy Butler. Knowing it’s a rental like the Toronto Raptors once got for Kawhi Leonard, would the Grizz do it? Plus, KOC and Bobby break down trade possibilities for three disappointing teams: the Phoenix Suns, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Golden State Warriors. Interestingly, Bobby and Kevin seem to think Draymond Green could move to the Dallas Mavericks or Detroit Pistons. And between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunder, which powerhouse is the most likely trade destination for Cam Johnson?
And when John Fanta stops by, Cooper Flagg is the name of the game. Which NBA players can both see in the Duke phenomenon? Kawhi Leonard, Kevin Garnett, and Anthony Davis are just a few of the names guys get when it comes to the guaranteed No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Plus, TikTok may be changing, but PikTok is here to stay: Kevin hosts a new segment that is just that: talking about 2025 NBA Draft prospects as seen through the eyes of college basketball expert Mr. Fanta.
