Episode Notes
On this week’s episode of ‘The Young Man and Three,’ we welcome Nickeil Alexander-Walker and CJ McCollum of the streaking Atlanta Hawks!
The duo gets into so much, including why the Hawks got so hot post-trade deadline and why they enjoy playing for head coach Quin Snyder. They also get into a lot of Nickeil’s background and growing up with his cousin Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and when Nickeil knew SGA was special. Nickeil also shares his journey of being traded multiple times in the NBA, his time on the Pelicans, Jazz, and Wolves, and what has led to his impressive scoring jump this year. So much more fascinating basketball discussion in this episode as well. Let’s go!
