In a star-studded episode of KSR, Ryan Lemond, stepping in for Matt Jones, assembled a dream team for Tuesday's show. The lineup featured two towering talents, Willie Cauley-Stein and Lukasz Obrzut, who graced the airwaves with their presence. The show took place at KSBar and Grille, where Cauley-Stein and Obrzut shared insightful conversations with Ryan, the host, and KSR listeners.
Cauley-Stein, the special guest in the first hour, opened the show with a heartwarming update on his life as a dad during the holiday season. He also discussed his passion for golf, revealing how he utilized golf to enhance his free-throw shooting skills during his time in Sacramento. Since his retirement from basketball, Cauley-Stein has fully embraced the sport, even launching his own golf line.
