Sean Marshall: Jared Dudley is by far the smartest basketball player I've ever played with

Sean Marshall is not surprised that his co-captain at Boston College, Jared Dudley, has survived 13 seasons in the NBA.

“Jared is by far the smartest basketball player that I’ve ever played with,” Marshall said on The Habershow podcast with NBC Sports national NBA Insider Tom Haberstroh. “He’s like a chameleon. He can fit in anywhere.”

Marshall is now the captain of Team Challenge ALS in The Basketball Tournament. He discussed life in TBT bubble. 

“I don’t think people truly understand what it’s been like in the bubble in terms of taking these tests every day and literally waiting for the results the next day to see if you’re going to have a positive COVID-19 test result,” Marshall said. “So I literally take the test and then we usually get the results early in the morning. I set my alarm for around 8:00 in the morning and refresh my email every 15 seconds waiting for the results to come and hoping that none of the guys on my team have a positive result.”
