Well Played: Luka’s a Laker, Iowa Honors Caitlin, and our Super Bowl Bingo Card ft. Lily Shimbashi of Sportsish
It’s Super Bowl week, but the drama in the sports world never stops. Luka Doncic got caught up in what many experts are dubbing the “worst trade in NBA history” while A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo hard launched their relationship at the South Carolina alumna’s jersey retirement. After covering big headlines of the week, Caroline and Blake share Super Bowl rituals plus what they’ve got their eye on as the big game approaches.
In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:
- Why Mavericks’ fans haven’t slept since Luka Doncic’s trade to the Lakers
- Caitlin Clark (potentially) having the fastest jersey retirement since leaving Iowa
- Why Blake and Caroline are butting heads when it comes to Super Bowl watch habits
- WTF prop bets actually are and which ones you should care about
- Lily’s reactions to what’s on our Super Bowl bingo cards, including how often Taylor Swift will appear on the broadcast and who Kendrick Lamar is bringing out during his halftime show
