Indiana Pacers guard and Leeds Owner part-owner, TJ McConnell joins Larry Nancy Jr. and Rog for episode 2 of "Switch the Play". TJ opens up about this love for Leeds United and his obsession with football kits, the magic of Elland Road, playing at Madison Square Garden, and explains why the Premier League "is better when Leeds is in it."

"Switch the Play" is presented by the great friends at Olipop.
-------------------------------------------------------------
“Switch the Play,” w/ Larry Nance Jr. & Rog Bennett is a weekly digital show where NBA legends pull back the curtain on their love of the beautiful game.

Larry’s lifelong obsession with soccer began as a player—something he did from a young age until 16—and has now stepped up a level as he has become a part-owner of Premier League side, Leeds United. What makes this show special, with Larry and Rog together at the helm, is that it’s not about highlights or hot takes, it’s about NBA players talking about the game we all love like true fans: debating over Premier League teams and players, swapping stories from the locker room, and connecting two sports that share more DNA than you might think.
