On this week’s episode of ‘The Young Man and the Three’, we welcome Noah Clowney, Danny Wolf, Egor Dёmin, and Drake Powell of the Brooklyn Nets.
The group discusses the Nets young roster and their mindsets and approach to this season, each of their backstories playing AAU, overseas, and college (including a great discussion about how NCAA basketball is changing), stories from their draft nights, standout moments from their young NBA careers so far (including Danny’s viral moments getting sh*t talked by Jimmy Butler and Kevin Durant), and so much more.
