Favorite Episode: Mike D'Antoni, Hall of Famer and former Suns Coach
Tuesday, September 08, 2026 | 25:09
It’s a privilege to have a conversation with a Hall of Famer in any field. It’s even more special when they are a local legend and a fantastic human being. That describes former Phoenix Suns coach Mike D’Antoni. D’Antoni talks about his career and some great memories he has of being the coach of the Suns. Not only the great players they were, but the great men of character they were as well. He is such a humble man that he spent so much of our time together talking about other people and not himself. He is a man of faith who loves his family and is very grateful for his career. I hope you enjoy the conversation. This episode was originally published on May 18, 2026.
