Lakers Are Back & Team USA’s WBC Crisis

Lakers Are Back & Team USA’s WBC Crisis

Host Grant Mona breaks down a night of defensive dominance for the Purple and Gold before shifting gears to the diamond, where Team USA finds themselves in a self-inflicted nightmare at the World Baseball Classic.

Segment One: "This Group is Starting to Get It" The Los Angeles Lakers secured a massive 120–106 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday, completing a season sweep of the team that bounced them from the playoffs last year. Grant brings you the postgame audio from JJ Redick, who praised the team's "play control" and a defense that forced Anthony Edwards into a miserable 2-of-15 shooting night. We also hear from Luka Dončić, who notched his 89th career triple-double, and Austin Reaves, who exploded for 29 second-half points. The message from the locker room is clear: even without LeBron James, this team believes they have finally "turned the tide" defensively.

Segment Two: DeRosa’s Math & Team USA’s WBC Gaffes The star-studded Team USA roster is sweating out a quarterfinal berth after a shocking 8–6 loss to Italy, and Grant isn't holding back. He breaks down the "egregious" gaffe by manager Mark DeRosa, who went on MLB Network hours before the game and claimed the U.S. had already "punched their ticket," leading him to bench stars like Bryce Harper and Cal Raleigh.
