HERZOGENAURACH, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 30, 2025--

Global sports company PUMA launches the ‘Go Wild Podcast’ as the brand continues to amplify its ‘Go Wild’ philosophy. The first initial episodes are hosted by sprint and hurdle legend Colin Jackson and will feature intimate interviews with a collective of high-profile ambassadors, athletes, and influencers associated with PUMA – also known as The PUMA Wild Ones - who embody PUMA’s philosophy to Go Wild by fearlessly redefining their fields in sport.

The first episode begins with a compelling conversation between Colin Jackson and the fastest man in the world, Usain Bolt, in a 30-minute sit-down interview. Listeners can expect an upbeat and playful conversation, diving into moments of triumph, emotional highs, and breakthroughs that have defined Bolt’s extraordinary career, including overcoming lows such as the infamous 2011 disqualification.

The Go Wild Podcast delves into both sport and lifestyle, with conversations rooted in authenticity, courage, and self-expression. Through these podcast stories, PUMA aims to connect with its audience on a deeper level, embracing the aspirations of a new generation.

Julie Legrand, Global Senior Director Brand Strategy and Communication at PUMA, says: “The launch of our new Go Wild Podcast allows our audience to delve deeper into PUMA’s brand DNA, told through the lens of inspiring individuals who truly embody PUMA’s philosophy. At PUMA, we want to champion the individuals who have the courage to be themselves, and this first episode with Usain Bolt can do this perfectly. With more intimate conversations on the Go Wild podcast, we aim to inspire a new generation to embrace boldness, authenticity, and self-expression.”

Following the launch of PUMA’s largest global brand campaign to date in March, which champions the courage to be yourself and the joy of sport, the Go Wild Podcast delves into the personal journeys of those who embody this philosophy.

Episodes will feature as part of a wider Go Wild content series by PUMA, which will roll out full-profile video content on notable figures in sport and culture, alongside content at major global sporting events this year such as the Boston Marathon and the Women’s Football Euro Championship.

MIAMI (AP) — Bam Adebayo scored 29 points, including three long jumpers in the final minutes, and Norman Powell added 27 as the Miami Heat squandered a 20-point lead before recovering to beat the Phoenix Suns 127-121 on Tuesday night.

Powell hit a 3-pointer with 48 seconds left to put Miami ahead for good, and Andrew Wiggins made a pair of free throws to seal the game after Phoenix's Dillon Brooks was called for a flagrant foul with 11.5 seconds remaining.

Adebayo pushed his career total to 9,461 points — two more than Alonzo Mourning for No. 2 on Miami's list, with Dwyane Wade's 21,556 points the franchise record. Tyler Herro scored 23 for Miami, which snapped a three-game slide.

Brooks and Grayson Allen each scored 25 for Phoenix, which had won three straight. Devin Booker finished with 24 points, nine rebounds and nine assists for the Suns, while Mark Williams added 18 points and 14 rebounds.

Phoenix was trying to overcome a 20-point deficit for the second time this season; the Suns trailed by 20 to Sacramento on opening night. They're now 0-11 in games in which they trailed by at least 20 since, but had a chance on Tuesday.

The Heat led by 20 after Herro made a 3-pointer on the opening possession of the second half, and the lead was still 17 when Booker was called for an offensive foul with 9:17 left in the third quarter — a play that the Suns challenged.

They won the challenge, and the game immediately changed.

Booker made the two free throws that got awarded instead, starting what became a 13-0 run. A three-point play by Oso Ighodaro with 0.1 seconds left in the third tied the game at 92, and a 3-pointer by Collin Gillespie with 9:13 left gave the Suns their first lead of the night.

Phoenix led by as many as six in the final minutes, before Adebayo and Powell sparked the Heat comeback.

Suns: Visit Detroit on Thursday.

Heat: Host Boston on Thursday.
