    Well Played: NBA All Star Agony, 4 Nations Face Off (and Fist Fight), and UCONN Snaps a Streak

    The NBA hoped to get fans to care about the All Star Game this year and…it seriously backfired. After only 42 minutes of game time during the 3-hour broadcast, fans were left scratching their heads at the new format, the constant stoppages, and Kevin Hart’s (bad) jokes. Blake and Caroline look to the NHL’s 4 Nations for inspiration on how the ballers can make next year better.  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Why the NBA revamped the All-Star game format, and why fans still hated it  Wemby and Chris Paul exploiting a loophole in the skills challenge  How the list of the top-100 highest paid athletes in 2024 includes zero women  Women’s college hoops heating up with No. 7 UCONN’s win over No. 4 USC Our top “Send Its” of the week including Saquon pulling a ball boy into the Eagles parade, Lebron ditching the All Star game to work out with his daughter, and the three-peat winner of the dunk contest Caroline’s Instagram: @cghendy Blake’s Instagram: @blaaakkkke theSkimm’s Instagram: @theskimm Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Why this was a Super Bowl for haters of all kinds  Decoding Kendrick’s halftime performance  How many times Taylor Swift was shown during the game (hint: not a lot) The women who won the Super Bowl, including the first Black woman coach and Jalen Hurts’ management team  Our top Send Its for the week, including Bradley Cooper’s side hustle, Nike’s first commercial in almost 30 years, and a rapid fire round of fashion police  Caroline’s Instagram: @cghendy Blake’s Instagram: @blaaakkkke theSkimm’s Instagram: @theskimm Learn more about your ad choices.
