Episode Details

On today's episode of THE Take with Jackson Burlison, we break down my latest 2026 NBA Mock Draft Lottery, featuring future stars AJ Dybantsa, Cameron Boozer, Darryn Peterson, Caleb Wilson, and more. Which prospects are rising, who fits best with each franchise, and who could become the face of the next generation of the NBA?Then, we head to Dallas as George Pickens officially reports to Cowboys mandatory minicamp after signing his franchise tag. We discuss Pickens' comments on his contract situation, his relationship with Jerry Jones and Brian Schottenheimer, and whether another 1,400-yard season is on the horizon.Plus, our Play of the Week belongs to Lionel Messi, who delivered a historic World Cup hat trick for Argentina. Messi tied the all-time men's World Cup goals record, became the oldest player to score a World Cup hat trick, and once again reminded the soccer world why he's considered the greatest player of all time.To close the show, I preview Friday's massive USA vs. Australia World Cup showdown, break down key matchups, and give my official prediction for the Group D clash in Seattle.🎙️ Subscribe, leave a review, and don't miss next week's full 1-30 NBA Mock Draft.#NBA #NBADraft #2026NBADraft #AJDybantsa #CameronBoozer #CollegeBasketball #BasketballPodcast #NBAAnalysis #GeorgePickens #DallasCowboys #CowboysNation #NFL #NFLNews #DakPrescott #LionelMessi #Messi #Argentina #WorldCup2026 #USMNT #Soccer #Football #SportsPodcast #JacksonBurlison #TheTake #SportsTalk #Trending #SportsNews #DraftTalk #GOAT #podcast
