Episode 018: Draining 3s with Matt Shantz

Today I’m talking with my friend (and former coworker) Matt Shantz. Matt’s a huge basketball fan and a devotee of the Toronto Raptors. We talk about discovering basketball as a Canadian kid, how he started writing about basketball and the Raptors for Raptors Republic, and the role surprise 2014 draft pick Bruno Caboclo played in his life.

 

Matt and I briefly reminisce about trading tweets with Melissa Fumero of Brooklyn 99 and I ask the standard basketball question about Matt’s personal dream team.
