Cassidy Hubbarth Talks Christmas NBA, Buckets, and Mentors at ESPN
Cassidy Hubbarth joins the podcast this week! She will be on the sidelines for Rockets-Thunder on Christmas at 7pm ET on ABC, will anchor ESPN’s second screen experience on digital platforms and ESPNEWS during Lakers-Warriors this evening, and is the new co-host of Buckets, the ESPN and Cycle co-branded digital show alongside TBL alum Rob Perez. We discussed:
- Do the Rockets have a legit shot at knocking off the Warriors in the playoffs?
- Could this Thunder big-three experiment spiral quickly enough that they could become sellers at the trade deadline?
- The dynamics of this evening’s second screen show, which will include Jalen Rose, Woj, Bobby Marks, Nick DePaula, and Mike Schmitz in-studio in Bristol, as well as interactions with the NBA Countdown crew and game broadcasters.
- Working with World Wide Wob on the new season of Buckets, and what to expect from the show.
- Whether there was any time Cassidy ever had a crisis of confidence as she moved up through ESPN, and who her mentors at the organization have been.
Hope you enjoy!
