First To TWO RINGS: SGA, Luka or Another Star? + Tournament of Moves ft. MJ's Fadeaway UNDER or OVERrated?

The NBA rumor mill is on fire, and we’ve got all the latest! De'Aaron Fox has officially informed the Kings that he won’t sign an extension, pushing Sacramento into a difficult trade situation—will they grant his wish and send him to San Antonio, or is another team lurking? Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler’s future with the Heat is looking uncertain, and now a possible reunion with Joel Embiid in Philly is on the table.We also react to the shocking news of Jalen Johnson’s season-ending surgery and how it could shake up trade talks for Fox. Could the Hawks end up playing spoiler in a potential Spurs-Kings deal? And speaking of shakeups, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Toronto Raptors have been at the center of trade discussions—will either team make a big swing at the deadline?Then, we take a hard look at Bronny James' first significant NBA minutes. Was JJ Redick’s decision to play him a mistake, or is this just part of the process? Finally, the Nuggets' defense has been atrocious, and now they face a Knicks team that’s on fire. Can Denver get back on track, or will Jalen Brunson and Co. run them out of the Garden?Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONBA?sid=YouTubeLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFind a Daily Locked On NBA Podcast covering your favorite team:📲 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFollow the Locked On Podcast NetworkTwitter 📲 https://twitter.com/LockedOnNetworkTikTok 📲 https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonsportsSubscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBAFollow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA Your favorite podcast now has a newsletter!
