Down On the Farm


Ferguson called this kid before the draft. He was friends with the kid that was killed in the auto accident and was driving right behind him at the time. I wonder if that might have scared some teams to not draft him.

I said Boston was a reasonable pick in the early 2nd round due to his upside--maybe similar to a guy like Isaiah Todd. Later in the 2nd round, Boston was a no-brainer.
 


The restart of the GLeague season has been moved back about 10 days because of covid. It was supposed to restart Dec 27 and that has been moved back to Jan 4.
 
Macio Teague is no longer with the Stars. He and two other Stars signed overseas deals. The two other players JJ Avila and Jared Wilson Frame had been playing in a league in Mexico before joining the Stars. The Stars added three non-descript players to take their place.

If Sam Merrill clears waivers can he be picked up by the stars even though he’s injured? How does that work?

He is a free agent and any NBA team can sign him but if the Stars want to sign him I think they would have to acquire his rights from the Memphis GLeague team as Memphis is who waived him.
 
The thing that is impressive about the Heat is that they find a bunch of undrafted players that turn out to be decent. Sioux Falls has two bigs and a wing who could help the Jazz. And those guys weren't the best the Heat signed this off season. The Heat have four guys on their roster now that were undrafted. The two bigs are from Creighton and Wisconsin and wing from Miss. State. They don't need no stinking draft picks.
 
I saw a blurb that the Stars had five players in Covid protocol with two getting out in time to play Saturday with Macio Teague being one. They might be the source of the Jazz cooties.

Yep. Omer Yurtseven being the biggest example. Gabe Vincent and Max Strus been balling too. Then Duncan Robinson from a couple of seasons ago. Kudos to their scouting department.
 
The Stars lost again but only by 10 this time. Marquis Bolden made his debut for the Stars last night and had 19 points and 9 boards which led both teams. He was a McDonalds All American with Dok, Tony Bradley and Jayson Tatum. Perhaps he and not Dok are the big man of the future. Carsen Edwards had 21 points for the Stars who still have four guys in Covid protocols. My editorial comment is that Zaire Wade is way overmatched at this level. He needs to put on at least 30 pounds of muscle. He gets abused on both ends of the floor.
