Inside The Christian Laettner/Michael Jordan Ping-Pong Rivalry
This transcript has been edited and condensed for clarity. This conversation is from an episode of the Layup Line podcast between Kyle Ratke, Julian Andrews and former Timberwolves forward Christian Laettner.
KR: You talked about ping pong earlier. I want to talk about playing ping pong on the stretch with the Dream Team. You couldn’t be beaten.
CL: In my house also, I had a ping-pong table. I played some ping pong with the guys on the T’Wolves team. I might have been the champ on that team, too. But ping pong is a big part of my life. I grew up playing it against my brother and my father when I was young. They used to kick my behind for a long time, so I got very good at it.
