New Orleans Pelicans Jaxson Hayes, Josh Hart Open Up On LightHarted Podcast

The New Orleans Pelicans have arguably the most accessible players in the league, and no longer have to go wait and wade through old media channels. The players come straight to fans with their podcasts.

Jaxson Hayes joined the LightHarted Podcase with Josh Hart. He began by speaking on his upbringing and basketball career. Born in Oklahoma, Hayes was primarily focused on football throughout his childhood. His father was a football coach at the University of Oklahoma, and later a coach on the Cincinnati Bengals staff. Hayes said he played receiver on his high school team, but by his junior year, he was too tall.
