In the latest episode of the Locked On NBA Big Board podcast, hosts Rafael and James Barlowe break down Zach Edey’s dominant performance against the Indiana Pacers, where the rookie center put up 23 points and 9 rebounds, showcasing his ability to dominate on the block.

They also highlight Jaylen Wells, who continues to impress for the Memphis Grizzlies, adding 12 points and 6 rebounds while leading the team in preseason scoring. The Barlowe brothers discuss Zaccharie Risacher, the number one overall pick, who delivered another strong game for the Atlanta Hawks with 14 points and 8 rebounds.

Matas Buzelis’ well-rounded 15-point, 2-rebound, 2-assist performance for the Chicago Bulls against the Milwaukee Bucks also gets attention.
