NBA Straya!! AUSSIE BASKETBALL LEDGE CHRIS ANSTEY SWINGS BY FOR OUR 150th EPISODE SPECTACULAR!!!
YES! It’s our 150th episode, and what better way to celebrate than with a dead-set Australian basketball ledge — and former NBA player — Chris Anstey!
NBA Straya talks to Chris about his fascinating career from the South East Melbourne Magic to being the first player drafted from the NBL into the NBA… his time spent with the Dallas Mavericks and Chicago Bulls, playing against Shaq, being teammates with Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash… and, as a rookie, beating Michael Jordan!
We also cover his time in Russia, winning titles with the Tigers, how his game would fit in today’s NBA (he’s the Original Unicorn, don’t forget)… but also the growth of Australian basketball and the rise of Aussies making it to the NBA. It’s a great, wide-ranging chat that you won’t wanna miss!
