Just two weeks ago, Andre Iguodala was battling on the court in his fifth consecutive NBA Finals with the Golden State Warriors. But Iguodala has had his mind on more than basketball. In his new memoir, “The Sixth Man,” Iguodala reflects on his childhood, the role of race in his life and in the NBA, and the mental and physical toll that competitive sports puts on kids and professional athletes. We’ll discuss his book and get his take on the latest Warriors news, like teammate Kevin Durant’s free agency announced Thursday.

Guests:

Andre Iguodala, NBA professional basketball player, Golden State Warriors
