This show takes you inside the world of basketball—on the court and behind the scenes. Hosted by NBA Draft Analyst, scout, and basketball lifer Matt Babcock, alongside co-host Calais Goord, the Babcock Hoops Show dives deep into the NBA Draft, scouting, and the business of basketball at every level: high school, college, international, and the NBA.

Matt's roots in the game run deep—his family has worked in the NBA since before he was born. After growing up around the game, he played in high school and college, coached professionally in Europe, and spent over a decade as a certified NBA agent before transitioning into media and scouting.

Calais brings a fresh lens to the show. Originally from England and now based in Los Angeles, she represents fashion models while building her voice in sports. Through Babcock Hoops, she bridges the gap between basketball and entertainment—exploring the intersection of culture, lifestyle, storytelling, and more.

Together, they offer expert insight and candid conversations while exploring the many layers the game of basketball offers.

Whether you're an NBA Draft enthusiast, hoops junkie, or simply curious about the people and decisions shaping the game, this is your inside look at how basketball really works.
