Episode description

Hall of Famer Gary Payton, one of the NBA’s most elite players, was a tenacious defender, talented scorer and legendary trash talker. This 9x All NBA and 9x All Defensive player’s fuel before home games was McDonald’s. Times were different in the 90s. Payton remembers almost being traded from Seattle and Larry Bird was an equally strong trash talker. Magic Johnson’s summer runs were eventful. As a collector, Payton owns Pete Rose’s and Willie Mays’ World Series rings and multiple NBA Jam arcade games at his homes.​
