About this episode
We have a fun episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way!
For this episode, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones cycle through each conference and place teams in tiers. Are the Thunder still in a class of their own, or should they have company? How big is the elite tier in the East? Who's truly capable of making a (Conference) Finals run?
From there, the guys discuss Joel Embiid's recent play and what it means, teams looking for answers against Victor Wembanyama, and the latest on Ja Morant.
Finally, the guys discuss some of the elite performances and interesting trends developing so far in Unrivaled.
