Point Forward

Point Forward

Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner formed their brotherhood on the NBA hardwood. Now in retirement, they've teamed up again to create the Point Forward Podcast; aptly named after the unique position they played in the league. These two unapologetic truth-tellers will use their platform to share the opinions and hot takes that made them fan favorites and at times, polarizing throughout their career. Dre and Evan keep their fingers firmly on the pulse of the sports world at large, business and culture. Each week tap in as they navigate everything from sports headlines & tech innovations to book reviews and trending memes. Throw in a rotating cast of some of the world's most elite players, musicians, and entrepreneurs and you'll quickly see why Point Forward is a refreshing new direction to the athlete conversation space. Candid. Unconventional. Witty. Welcome to the future. Part of SB Nation and the Vox Media Podcast Network.
