Listen "Magic Johnson’s Comeback with Nate Jones"
Episode Synopsis
No one thought that Magic Johnson was coming back after his announcement that he was retiring in 1991. When he returned in 1996 to play 32 Games for the Lakers, it was legendary. Determining whether this comeback is First Ballot worthy is NBA Agent and Marketer at Goodwin and Co-Founder of Move Insoles Nate Jones, who also takes time to talk about what it could have been like to watch Shaq play Magic (01:08:16), unknown facts about Dame (11:33), and his favorite players turned media personalities (01:17:07). Plus, his electric impression of wrestler Randy Savage (01:17:50).
