The NBA offseason did not wait.

On this episode of Hoops After Dark, Mike and Sam break down a chaotic start to the summer after the NBA Draft, with blockbuster trades, wild rumors, coaching moves and Summer League already taking over the conversation.

The show starts with Sam’s problem with celebrity row during World Cup coverage before shifting into the NBA madness. Giannis is headed to Miami with Bobby Portis. Milwaukee is starting over with Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kel’el Ware, Kasparas Jakučionis and future draft capital. LaMelo Ball is headed to Minnesota. Julius Randle is now in Brooklyn. Isaiah Joe is in Detroit. And Jalen Brown rumors are suddenly everywhere.

Mike and Sam discuss whether Miami actually has enough around Giannis and Bam, what Milwaukee’s next move should be, why Charlotte’s post-LaMelo roster is more interesting than expected, and whether Minnesota made the right swing by pairing LaMelo with Anthony Edwards.

The conversation also dives into Boston’s Jaylen Brown situation, including possible fits with Portland, Detroit, Cleveland and other teams trying to reshape their roster. Plus, the guys react to Dusty May leaving Michigan for the Dallas Mavericks, what it means for Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving and the future of the Mavs, and why more college coaches could start looking toward the NBA as NIL changes the college game.

Then it is NBA Draft time. Mike and Sam break down the biggest picks, best fits, confusing decisions and teams that may have quietly helped themselves, including Utah, Memphis, Chicago, Oklahoma City, Charlotte, Milwaukee, the Lakers, Warriors, Pistons and more.
