Description

Andy chats with Pro Basketball Hall of Famer - Ralph Sampson! In the spirit of the playoffs returning, Andy & Ralph take a trip down memory lane - brace yourselves Lakers fans - as they relive the dramatic conclusion of the 1986 Western Conference Finals. Hear Ralph also describe his journey to the NBA; from being perhaps the most highly recruited basketball player of his generation, his decision to go to the University of Virginia, being drafted No. 1 by the Houston Rockets in 1983, playing alongside Hakeem Olajuwon as a part of the "Twin Towers", and a wild story that involves a suitcase filled with a million dollars! Andy & Ralph also discuss his podcast "Center Court", and his charitable work!
