While the dog days of summer are upon us, it might seem as if the wider NBA world is in something of a slumber. But the league has been hard at work promoting its brand abroad, while players like Boston Celtics star forwards Al Horford and Danilo Gallinari have been getting ready to represent their respective national teams.

Players have also been finding an offseason groove that suits what they need to focus on, whether that means family time or time abroad playing with FIBA. To talk about what's been going on with her family since the Finals, NBA investment in Latin American basketball, and other goings-on in her orbit, we brought on friend of the pod Anna Horford to share her perspective.

We talk about her brother Jon's recent run for office, Dominican basketball (and other) culture, and some potential projects coming down the pike with the Horford family.

We also touch on the trickle of news coming out as always with your regular hosts Cameron Tabatabaie, Justin Quinn, and Alex Goldberg, so be sure to check this episode out.
