In an interview Monday on The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz, JJ Redick opened up about the passing of the late Kobe Bryant in early 2020, which inspired him to pursue opportunities for deep basketball talk with great players on the biggest possible platforms. “This is an opportunity for any basketball fan to listen to one of the greatest players ever talk about the game of basketball,” Redick said. “We saw that for a few years with Kobe. And god rest his soul, him being gone, there’s a void there. How many of the [other] all-time greats are talking about the game? I don’t know if there’s anybody.” -via Awful Announcing / April 8, 2024
