The best way to understand the NBA this upcoming 2025-26 season is by knowing who holds the power around the league. It's not just about being in control, it's about having the juice. The Athletic's Fred Katz comes onto the show to discuss which people in (and outside) the NBA will have the most impact on the league this upcoming season and dictate where the league goes in the short and long term. Mike Vorkunov and Fred Katz draft their top five selections and it's not who you think.
