About the episode
In a fresh interview recorded just hours before the 2023 NBA All-Star Game tipped off in Salt Lake City, UT, Point Forward co-hosts ANDRE IGUODALA and EVAN TURNER welcome Utah Jazz forward LAURI MARKKANEN to the show. After a super timely topics conversation in which the co-hosts talk through the current business of the NBA as it relates to the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns sales, Regional Sports Network drama and the load management debate, we hear from the first Scandinavian All-Star in NBA history. “The Finnisher,” a 7-footer who can score from all over the floor, talks about growing up a hooper in a hockey-mad country, reflects with fellow Arizona Wildcat Andre about his time in Tucson and how his confidence has grown through being the best player on his teams—Finland and the Jazz.
