Naji Marshall on Being Hurt That Luka Was Traded, the Mavs’ No. 1 Pick, and the Biggest "Dogs" in the NBA

The Young Man and the Three

On this week’s episode of ‘The Young Man and the Three’ we welcome Dallas Mavericks forward Naji Marshall, hosted by his best friend Trey Murphy of the New Orleans Pelicans. It’s a truly hilarious episode with both of them. Naji shares where he was on the night of the NBA Draft lottery and his thoughts on the Dallas Mavericks securing the number one pick and top prospect Cooper Flagg. Trey and Naji then reminisce on their time on the Pelicans together, including what some career lessons they learned were and some of their funniest stories together. Naji then opens up about his reaction when the Mavs traded Luka, what contributed to his own breakout season, and more. They then close out the episode discussing what they're looking forward to in this weekend's playoff games. Let's go.
