Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association

Is the Zion Williamson era officially over in New Orleans? In this episode of Locked On NBA Daily, Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize break down the New Orleans Pelicans’ disastrous start, Willie Green’s hot seat, and what’s next for Zion’s future.

Then, the focus shifts to the MVP race, with Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and even Victor Wembanyama emerging as early favorites. Finally, the hosts preview the NBA’s biggest games, including Heat vs. Spurs, Warriors vs. Bucks, and Wizards vs. Thunder, with betting insights and bold predictions. Catch every take, stat, and storyline from the league’s top voices in basketball podcasting.
