Domantas Sabonis is one of five NBA stars featured in the new Netflix docuseries, Starting 5. He joins the show to discuss how the NBA is changing and what it was like to have a camera following him at all times.

We also hear from NFL insider Jordan Schultz on constantly chasing scoops and how the lifestyle can lead to burnout. He also opines on whether Adam Schefter could hold his own job and also replace Adrian Wojnarowski at ESPN, the difficult relationship between the Raiders and Davante Adams, and how Haason Reddick ended up in his increasingly expensive holdout.

Plus, MLB broadcasts could look very different after Diamond Sports Group dropped all but one team, Michael Jordan is suing NASCAR, and NIL (name, image, and likeness) is coming to North Carolina high schools.
