    RT @JonesOnTheNBA: Also KD back then: slept on an air mattress in his former teammates apt during summer school at UT after he was already an NBA player. Took the Mega Bus from NYC to DC after scoring 66 points at Rucker Park.

    Sat down with Kadeem Hardison to discuss 'A Different World,' Dwayne Wayne and returning to Hillman decades later for Netflix. He also relayed some incredible Michael Jordan stories from that era.

    The @TheSavBananas built one of the most viral brands. Recently had a great time with @Nataliekitro discussing their rise and diving into my baseball fandom in a recent episode of the Daily.
