Trying to find Rudy a new best friend after waiving Raul?Wonder about the Gobert connection? I mean, everyone knows everyone else in France, right? (smile)
Trying to find Rudy a new best friend after waiving Raul?
I had the same thought. Also, doesn't Thabo speak French?
Think he does. It wouldn't surprise me if this one came as a suggestion from Rudy. But dude looks like he can ball in his own right.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
NBA scouts are everywhere. It is tough for legitimate NBA talent to fall through the cracks. I'm hoping for somewhere between Niang and ONeal. If I'm feeling crazy, somewhere between ONeal and Ingles the last year of his contract.
I'm good with that. We can't expect much from a guy who will on the end of the bench. He will not be Ingles, but if he turns into another Royce? Cool.
So, does Oni or Brantley get the final spot?
If we are extremely lucky.
I remember DMC when he did it and showed up to an event for my kid. He was fun, active and engaged with the kids. A genuinely nice dude. Great representative for the team. One of the reasons I was/am/will always be a “Junkyard Dawg” homer.The three Jr. Jazz guys I remember as a kid were Corbin, Thurl, and Crotty, which two are some pretty big names for doing Jr. Jazz.

This is not a bad thing. The Spurs use their G-League team to season their rookies more than any other franchise in the league. It’s a great plan to model. Let them PLAY featured roles in a similar system while they train and build their bodies and skill set.Goes to show that our picks will be on the road with the Stars this year to get them some development time. Pretty apparent during SL that some time in the system will help them.
No such thing as G League rights. I highly doubt this dude is willing to make 25k a year in the gleagueI could see him getting a TC shot with little to no guarantee; and if he doesn’t make it, Jazz keep his G-League rights with the Stars. They can squat on 4 guys like that, as long as they’re not signed to an NBA or 2-way deal with another team.
