It's weird that we haven't heard anything official about him. that tweet is from 3 days ago.

edit: It seems like he just had a visit, but probably hasn't signed yet. I'm reading about Pacers being interested too...
 
Graham announced his before anyone else on IG also, I think.

Funny that Weber and Graham both went to VCU. Maybe Weber jumped the gun. Do we even have another spot? Aren't we at 20?
 
Dude averaged 4 steals per game in 27 minutes. That ish is crazy.

I guess he could be like a Patrick Beverly type.

Questionable 3pt shooting though. Had a breakout year with 41%, but hardly took any shots. Was shooting in the mid 20's every other year.
 
Seems like he suffered a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus at the end of January. They are probably trying to get him signed for the Stampede. I am not sure he will be ready for camp.
 
He's a badass. I wanted the Packers to bring him to TC if he was healthy. They have a history of converting basketball players to CB. He's smallish, but aggressive, athletic and a pure-born leader. I'd love to see him end up with the Stampede and see where he's at a year from now health-wise.
 
Would've been the All-Time NCAA steals leader if he didn't blow his knee out (ACL, MCL, Meniscus) in January.

I would love for the Jazz to give him a shot in the D-League, but I think another NBA team will give him a spot in the big show.

Is he even back to playing yet? January 2016 would be one year after his injury. Really a shame: just 12 steals away from being the all-time NCAA leader. Life ain't fair sometimes.

And smart by DL if this is true and they can sign him to the Stampede. Low risk/high reward move. Weber definitely looked like he had the skills to be on an NBA roster. The real question is if he can get back his quickness after such a horrible injury.
 
Love his tweet. Sounds like he REALLY wants to be part of the Jazz. Kind of like, I took the dish washing job at the restaurant because no one else wanted to hire me and I gotta pay rent and buy food.

Yep. They have a history of converting aggressive and athletic guards into cornerbacks. The've picked a guy like that in each of the past 2 drafts. I was a big fan of Weber and was really bummed when he got hurt. Think he'd have made an excellent CB.
