5/29 The Friday Drive

Rudy Campos Jr. and former NBA player Derek Gervin are LIVE in the Salem Surround Studios breaking down the two biggest words in sports: GAME 7. The San Antonio Spurs just blew out OKC by 27 points in Game 6 behind a dominant 28-point, 10-rebound performance from Victor Wembanyama. Now, the series is tied 3-3 heading back to Oklahoma City.
