Welcome back to Hoop Ties! Why is everyone hating on the USA's FIBA World Cup Roster? No matter how talented other international teams might be, this USA team will have more than enough quality players to get the job done. On this episode, I am joined by Max Van Auken and we start this one off by talking about Paolo Banchero’s potential to be one of the best players in the league. Also, why do people continue to disrespect Trae Young by calling him overrated because he is truly one of the biggest threats in the NBA. We then talk about potential landing spots for Jaylen Brown if the Celtics decide not to pay him. Finally, we discuss some of the best young talent in the league that we are excited to watch develop.
