Links: the NBA connection puzzle

How to play

• You get a start player and a finish player: NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, or two different sports.
• Name a player who shared a city with the last one in the same season: a teammate, or a rival across town. Each link is one stroke.
• Reach the finish in as few links as you can. Par is one more than the shortest chain. Three strikes and you're out.
