Desmond Powell was the kid with the grandest NBA dreams and in 2017 he developed a similar obsession with Hip-Hop. Born in '98 with a soul that seems older, he knew basketball and Hip-Hop have went hand-in-hand for years, but realized that there has never been a platform that combined both simultaneously, so he decided to create it. With its name inspired by the famous Lord Finesse song, this podcast is for you: the basketball junkie AND Hip-Hop head. The goal is simple: Desmond wants you to remember why you loved both in the first place and more importantly, realize that Hip 2 Da Games is not just a podcast, it's a lifestyle.

How Michele Timms Became The W's OG Fan Favorite: "You Had To Be There" Vol. 8 ft. Tyler McDowell-Blanken
Desmond returns this week with another edition of "You Had To Be There," where he is joined by 19 Media Group teammate Tyler McDowell-Blanken. Tyler sticks to his Arizona roots and makes H2DG history by giving flowers to one of the WNBA's most beloved pioneers---Michele Timms. The guys reflect on her short but impactful playing days with the Mercury, how she continues to impact the next generation through coaching, and how the WNBA has grown since her debut in its inaugural season in 1997. Additionally, after Tyler reveals his 5 x 5, he and Dez get into some fun and interesting Hip-Hop discussions, including Will Smith's 90s-2000s run and Drake's potential revival post-Kendrick Lamar beef. A loaded Hip 2 Da Games episode indeed!
Enjoy and show Ty some love! Thank you for all the support! - Dez
