Jamal Crawford and Quentin Richardson are back for a brand new stream of NBA HooperVision on NBA League Pass. The duo will share stories and provide commentary along with in-depth analysis from former players’ perspectives during Friday night’s Washington Wizards vs. Chicago Bulls game (8 ET).

The Wizards (19-19) are coming off a 114-111 last-second loss to the Houston Rockets. Bradley Beal led the way with 27 points, while Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Kyle Kuzma chipped in 26 and 24 points, respectively.

The first-place Chicago Bulls (25-10) enter the contest on a season-best eight-game winning streak. Chicago is being led by DeMar Derozan (26.9 PPG) and Zach LaVine (26.3 PPG). The dynamic duo will seek another win against the Wizards after escaping last Saturday in a 120-119 thriller thanks to DeRozan’s buzzer-beater.

Richardson and Crawford were both selected in the 2000 Draft and combined to play in more than 2,100 NBA games. They were teammates on the New York Knicks from 2005-09, when Crawford was dealt to the Golden State Warriors in exchange for Al Harrington.

Crawford, a guard who was picked No. 8 in the Draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers and traded to the Chicago Bulls, is tied with Lou Williams as the only players in NBA history to win the Kia Sixth Man of the Year Award in three different seasons. Crawford played for the Bulls, Knicks, Warriors, Atlanta Hawks, Portland Trail Blazers, LA Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns and Nets in his 20-year career.

At 39, and in his final regular-season game with Phoenix, Crawford dropped 51 points in a loss to the Dallas Mavericks. That performance made him the oldest NBA player to score 50+ points in a game, as well as the first player to score that many points off the bench in a single NBA game.

Richardson, a combo guard-forward who was picked No. 18 by the Clippers, played 13 seasons with stops in Phoenix, New York, Miami and Orlando after beginning his career in LA. He won the 2005 NBA 3-Point Contest and has gone on to a successful broadcast career, which includes co-hosting the popular “Knuckleheads” podcast.
