This week on Time Out - No Flop Zone, Joey Wright and Boti Nagy take a deep dive into two of the hottest topics in basketball: the growing number of Australians in the NBA and the desperation behind bringing in new imports this late in the NBL season**. 🏀
They discuss the signings of Ian Hummer, Josh Adams, and Jalan Adams, and what it says about the state of some teams. Is it a strategic gamble or just a panic move? Plus, they look at benching Cam Oliver and question whether you can really win with Kendrick Davis leading the charge.
The hosts also touch on the Adelaide 36ers’ slim playoff chances and debate whether it’s time to retire Daniel Johnson’s jersey. They recap Illawarra vs. Tasmania, with special attention to Tyler Harvey’s improvements, and take a look at Serbian basketball in Coach’s Corner.
Finally, the episode spotlights Australians thriving in the NBA, from Josh Green to Matisse Thybulle, Jock Landale, Luke Travers, and more. The show wraps up with Melbourne vs. Sydney predictions for the next big NBL clash.
