The Open Run With Will Strickland
Episode 144 – Lucky Me
Rabbit’s feet, rosary beads, boxes of sugary cereal with green clovers and blue diamonds aside, luck is what we make it by being ready for the moment.
And the moment reveals itself when Wall $t. enlists four-time Full Court 21 All World champion Jesse Washington, senior writer at ESPN’s Andscape and co-author of a New York Times Best Seller, Lucky Me, the memoir of Klutch Sports’ Rich Paul, to make it all make sense.
The incredible two man team lament how dishing the dirt on the Kansas men’s basketball team is like spitting in the wind, discover how a writing style can be influenced by hip hop and hoops, give flowers to the 2023 WNBA champs in Vegas and embrace opening day of the 78th campaign of the National Basketball Association with no James Edward Harden Jr. but Embiid already Skech’dit out.
News.
