## Resource

Bomani Jones breaks down the Jaylen Brown trade, why the Boston Celtics decided to move on, and what the deal says about the NBA’s new era of team-building, player value, and trade season. On this episode of The Right Time, Bomani explains why Jaylen Brown remains a highly productive scorer while also unpacking the bigger debate around advanced stats, roster construction, and the never-ending “athletes vs. math elites” conversation.Bomani also looks at what happens next for LeBron James, why his next move may be about more than basketball, and which teams make the most sense as the NBA keeps orbiting around his future. Plus, Bomani gets into geopolitics at the World Cup, and a hilarious reaction to Trump supporters getting stuck inside the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture during a July 4 storm.
