ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Marcus Thompson II – a writer for The Athletic and author of the newly available book Game Changers, The GOATS Who Revolutionized Basketball – joins Myles and Owen for Episode 90 of Pull Up. Thompson delves into the thought process behind his book, why the women’s basketball players he chose made the cut, and the importance of context in piecing together pivotal women’s basketball stories when video of many consequential games is not available. Then, the three discuss Thompson’s arc covering the Golden State Valkyries, share in a mutual appreciation of Veronica Burton, and discuss the state of women’s basketball media before closing with a peek into the cutthroat world of figure skating.
