Episode 19: Getting in the Game with Sidney Moncrief

Bucks legend and Naismith Hall of Famer, Sidney Moncrief, is one of the greatest two-way basketball players in the history of the NBA. Alongside his former All-NBA teammate, Marques Johnson, the Bucks were perennial contenders under head coach, Don Nelson. This week, Moncrief joins Marques and Kris on Hear District to discuss how he became one of the toughest players of his era. Moncrief reacts to reports that Jerry West wanted to select him with the number one overall pick in the NBA draft over Magic Johnson, and how a trip to Bulgaria in college showed him just how special of a player Larry Bird would become. The two-time DPOY also reveals his strategy for defending Michael Jordan, and Kris tells the story of how he delighted the President after name-dropping Sir Sid at the White House.
