    Jan 30 2026

    Paul Pierce returns to Lawrence, Kansas for the first time in over 15 years as the most-anticipated college basketball game of the season unfolds.

    Kevin Garnett and Paul break down why this freshman class is being compared to the legendary 1996 draft, debate whether NIL money is making college more valuable than the G-League, and share their PrizePicks selections on who shows up in the biggest spotlight.
