The Dawgs are back in Vegas!
On this episode of Dawg Talk, KCP and J-Mac sit down with Denver Nuggets forward Spencer Jones live from NBA Summer League 2026 in Las Vegas for one of the most insightful conversations yet.
Spencer Jones opens up about his incredible journey from going undrafted to earning a full NBA contract with the Denver Nuggets. He shares what life in the G League is really like, the pressure of earning minutes in the NBA, and the moment he realized he belonged after being thrown into the starting lineup during the NBA Playoffs.
The conversation also dives deep into business, investing, and building wealth beyond basketball. Spencer explains how LinkedIn has helped him build a powerful business network, make angel investments, and connect with executives and entrepreneurs. KCP discusses why more NBA players should use LinkedIn and reveals his growing interest in AI investing and building his brand outside of basketball.
The guys also react to the biggest NBA offseason storylines, including LeBron James' future, the Jaylen Brown trade, the NBA's controversial second apron salary cap, and how roster construction is changing the league.
Plus, KCP shares incredible behind-the-scenes stories about playing with Nikola Jokic, explains why Jokic is one of the greatest passers in NBA history, compares him to LeBron James, and discusses why the Nuggets' playoff run ended earlier than expected.
