Mike Conley has one title this year already. The Utah Jazz point guard is the NBA’s reigning HORSE king after beating out Chris Paul, Trae Young, Zach LaVine and others to win an All-Star shooting competition this week. But Conley is hopeful that, despite the complications and uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, he and his Jazz teammates will still get a shot at playing for an NBA title this season.
In a call with reporters on Friday, Conley discussed his trick-shot skills, how he is staying ready to play, and why he’s feeling some optimism in a difficult time.
