Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

AD and AJ Fuel a Wizards Victory over Orlando, with Domo
Q: What have you seen from Keyshawn George and his growth and development coming into his third year, that really has both of us undoubtedly having him number one amongst that group?
Domo says George was mostly used as a spot-up shooter in college but showed untapped playmaking and ball-handling ability. With more opportunity, added strength and improved explosiveness, George is growing into a more complete player, and Domo sees continued three-point aggression as an important next step.
AD and AJ Fuel a Wizards Victory over Orlando, with Domo
Q: What did you see from the Wizards that allowed them to come out there and really take care of business against a depleted Orlando Magic team?
Domo points to strong play from Anthony Davis, AJ DeBonsa's defense and Kyshawn George's shooting, saying George's willingness to take more threes addressed a need for the team.
The Trae Young Rumors Continue to Build with Will Clayton
Q: What do you think about the news of Trae Young possibly coming? How do you feel about the possible fit? And what do you think about the compensation that should be going out or coming in?
Clayton sees Washington as a plausible destination because the team can accommodate Young's contract, but says it should seek draft capital, protect its young core, and account for the risk that Young could leave after opting out.
The Trae Young Rumors Continue to Build with Will Clayton
Q: What did you think about the game overall and the fact that the Wizards were able to pull out the win?
