Number 1 Pickleballer Anna Leigh Waters Joins & Mavs Win the Cooper Flagg Sweepstakes

The Mavs appear to have captured the Flagg!  Matt and Jerry share their thoughts on this year’s wild NBA Draft lottery results and explain why Dallas should hang on to that #1 pick for dear life even if it means turning away offers for Giannis Antetokounmpo.    Then, if you haven’t heard of Anna Leigh Waters yet, you certainly will soon!  The number 1 pickleball player in America and the country’s next young superstar athlete joins to talk about her amazing rise in the sport, the fallout from beating her mom in a match at age 12 and so much more!  Finally, Jerry explains to us how shouting “hit” and “miss” on the set of Battleship eventually landed him a role in Lone Survivor, and we answer the question of how old your child needs to be before you can tell people that they’re good at a sport.  New episodes of Throwbacks drop every Thursday.
