Now that the free agency period has started, Verno and KOC react to all the free agent signings, extensions, and more, starting with Jayson Tatum’s record-breaking contract extension with the Celtics, as well as Paul George’s impact with the Sixers and where the Clippers go from here (01:26). They then move on to discuss the contracts of Tyrese Maxey, Immanuel Quickley, and debate why the Nuggets wouldn’t match the contract that the Magic gave to Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (20:27). Next, they discuss Klay Thompson’s departure from the Warriors as he leaves to join the Mavs (38:56). Also, the impact that Chris Paul will make on Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle, and the rest of the young Spurs, as well as the latest rumors on Lauri Markkanen (46:47).
