Vecenie: Isaiah Joe… the Absolute Legend

Sam Vecenie is one of the most respectable NBA draft analysts in the industry. He was over at CBS Sports and now is employed by The Athletic. They’re lucky to have him.

If you’re a college basketball/NBA fan, he’s worth the follow on twitter. Puts out solid content in that wheelhouse. Not to mention, he’s real high on Isaiah Joe right now.

In this episode of Game Theory, he is joined by Cole Zwicker who writes for The Stepien. Like Vecenie, Zwicker has an infatuation with watching Joe playing basketball. These two do not hold back on their takes concerning the Fort Smith native.

“Isaiah Joe is the most fun player in college basketball that like 20% of college basketball fans know who the f*** he is.” -Vecenie 

“He literally put Herro’s a** on the bench because Herro couldn’t stay with him.” -Zwicker

I went ahead and clipped out the 4ish minutes dialogue of them talking about the Arkansas sophomore. Doubt these two will be the last national college basketball pundits giving the Arkansas shooting guard additional attention this season.

Zwicker wrote a great long-form piece which you can read here: A Closer Look at Isaiah Joe . In this article, he explores what makes Joe such an intriguing prospect. Takes a minute to get through, but it is worth your time.
