Show Notes
On this Wednesday edition of SportsWrap with Jason Page, we react to the Las Vegas Raiders officially introducing Klint Kubiak as head coach. Jason shares reasons for optimism after hearing from owner Mark Davis — but also raises concerns about Kubiak’s comments regarding the team’s quarterback plans for next season.
Part 2 of The Big Story focuses on the Los Angeles Lakers sitting LeBron James, Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves and other key players in what was supposed to be a marquee matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Was it load management, tanking, or something worse?
Sam Yarnell joins the show to break down the Raiders’ future and react to Mark Davis’ long-term vision for Las Vegas.
It’s Wednesday, so we go heavy on the NBA with Kurt Helin of Pro Basketball Talk (NBC Sports). We discuss tanking, roster rest controversy, and a report about the Dallas Mavericks ownership situation — including whether Mark Cuban could attempt to regain control.
