Basketball reporter Rob Knox, who covers HBCU hoops for The Next, joins Sarah to discuss how team success can affect player odds for individual awards, the college hoops stars currently flying under the radar, and the HBCU and mid-major teams everyone should be talking about. Plus, how to prep for Unrivaled’s tip-off, when heckling goes wrong, and an open question about just how many new pro volleyball leagues one country can have.
