Brooklyn He Go Hard (Feat. Mikal Bridges)

Brooklyn He Go Hard (Feat. Mikal Bridges)

Author: Andre Iguodala & Evan Turner April 14, 2023 Duration: 1:08:39
MIKAL BRIDGES grew up in Philadelphia watching ANDRE IGUODALA and EVAN TURNER hoop for his hometown Sixers. Now, he’s joining Point Forward’s co-hosts to walk them through how that local middle schooler became a rising star for the Brooklyn Nets. Mikal goes deep on his journey, including: Leading Villanova to two national championships; helping morph the Phoenix Suns into a contender; what he learned from Devin Booker and Chris Paul; his relationship with Deandre Ayton and their viral on-court verbal exchange earlier this season; and his new role as the face of the Brooklyn Nets. Additionally, Mikal opens up about both his aspirations (becoming an All-Star) and his challenges (draft night disappointment). This is a rare opportunity to really get to know a guy who is more inclined to just let his game do the talking.  Plus, before sitting down with Mikal, Andre and Evan share their thoughts on the NBA Play-In, go deeper on the Second Son Theory, and recap how the Masters went for Andre (and for the golfers).  Learn more about your ad choices.

In retirement, the bond forged on NBA courts between Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner finds a new outlet. Their Point Forward with Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner podcast is a direct extension of their on-court personas-versatile, insightful, and unafraid to challenge conventional wisdom. Named for the hybrid position they mastered, the show operates in a similar space, blending sharp basketball analysis with broader conversations about culture, business, and society.

The dialogue is free-flowing, often humorous, and grounded in the real-world transition from professional athletics to life after the final buzzer. You’ll hear their unique takes on current NBA events, player dynamics, and the intersection of sports with larger cultural forces. This isn't a sanitized media session; it's a candid exchange between two veterans who have seen it all and have the stories and opinions to prove it.
