This is a very special episode of The Old Man and The Three podcast with JJ Redick and Tommy Alter. Today we are joined by one of the best tennis players in the world, Frances Tiafoe, and this is one of the coolest conversations we've had on the podcast. Frances talks to us about his incredible backstory and how he got into tennis, beating Rafael Nadal in The US Open and making it all the way to the semifinals. He also discusses the pressures of being a successful American male tennis player and the influence of Venus and Serena Williams. Finally, he talks about his love for The NBA and JJ plays a little game with him where Frances has to compare specific NBA players to specific tennis players. After that, we are joined by OM3 correspondent and Phoenix Suns star, Mikal Bridges. We discuss the Zion 360 Dunk during their game against The New Orleans Pelicans that ignited a "kerfuffle" between players like Chris Paul, Jose Alvarado and Cam Payne. Lastly, we drafted 'People We Most Want To See Cast As James Bond" and if you know anything about Mikal's drafting skills... you know you're in for a treat.
