When Googling the phrase “Dončić Porzingis,” the first hits all direct you to stories about their relationship, chemistry, and beef.

Max Kellerman's softball chat with Jake Paul is an example of how not to interview an “athlete” accused of sexual assault
Look, I don’t know why Max Kellerman is interviewing Jake Paul. I get that he’s an aspiring fake boxer like his brother, Logan Paul, and that the most dangerous place in America is between either Paul brother and a camera.

Sure, they might not play the flashiest position and they’re not on the field all that much. And yes, they don’t block or tackle. Well… sometimes they do. Still, the kicker is a wildly important position. So don’t be surprised when a few prospects hear their names called on draft night....
