Podcast: Bobby Jones On The NBA Finals, ’72 Olympics & Other Courtside Tales
Posted Jun 24, 2018
Bobby Jones built a basketball career on his ability to guard other players, to the point where Nike created a marketing campaign calling him the Secretary of Defense.

Before that, Jones played for Dean Smith at The University of North Carolina.
