Robert Horry made an appearance at NBA Con in Las Vegas this past weekend, and got to see first hand how big Summer League has gotten with the new sphere on the strip. Summer League has also brought #1 pick Victor Wembanyama into the spotlight as people blew his debut out of proportion, while Rob feels like all these guys deal with early NBA jitters. Wemby was also the center of an incident involving Britney Spears – who exercised poor fan etiquette – and Rob talks about how people should approach players or celebrities that they want to meet. Rob also talks about Pop’s extension in San Antonio, and jokes that he waited to see if they got Wemby before signing. We also discuss how the Grant Williams deal in Dallas is great for Grant and the Kyrie-Luka experiment, and when Ben Simmons gets a vote of confidence from Nets GM Sean Marks it leads to a debate about who is the “Street Clothes Captain”. Kiyan Anthony has some high praise for Paul George, and so does B-Dog, but Rob and Jenners don’t buy the hype. We also give out a Big Shot of the Week to a TikToker that turned a struggling author into a best seller, and we play an always highly-contested round of Shot Clock!
