Fastbreak Breakfast: Taking a peak at the summer vacations of NBA stars

Katie Heindl joins the latest episode of Fastbreak Breakfast to discuss her NBA Summer Vacation Watch.

With NBA Summer League over, the large majority of free agency complete and still a month until the FIBA World Cup, not much is going on in the NBA right now.

Except, of course, NBA Summer Vacation Watch.

The passion project of Katie Heindl (@wtevs) from Yahoo! Sports Canada, Summer Vacation Watch tracks the trips around the world various NBA players are taking based on the information they post publicly on social media. Katie joins the latest episode of Fastbreak Breakfast to dish on the best and worst excursions so far and the (unexpected) friendships made along the way.

Among the topics covered:

• How does Jimmy Butler set the tone league-wide for vacationing?
• Is there a natural progression from the vacations taken by first- and second-year players to those taken by more experienced veterans?
• What in the world are Devin Booker and D’Angelo Russell up to?
• Should we be concerned about the rockstar trajectory of Nick Nurse? Is he going to burn up like a comet?
• Are there any correlations to be drawn from offseason travels to on-court success?
