Following Potential 2026 Draftees

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I wonder if Karin Lopez got trapped in a multi-year deal or something. Can’t imagine NBL competes with NCAA money wise.

He couldnt go NCAA even if he wanted to after playing a year professionally. They probably just thought it was better for his development/stock, but yeah, seems like a crazy decision to me.

Who can and cannot play in the NCAA is unclear and confusing. So many pros will be playing in the NCAA next year. Guess it depends on the type of contract someone signs….if Lopez signed a deal that made him ineligible, his management fumbled the bag.

It looks like the NBL regular season started last week. The game in this highlight looks like the worst of the two games Karim has played. He had 14pts/6reb in the game after this one.

Dash Daniels has played in 2 games so far and in his best game he scored 14pts/5reb/2stl

To ground myself on NBL stats here are a few NBA players that played in the NBL:

Josh Giddey 2021 Adelaide: 32mpg/10.9pts/6.2reb/7.5ast/1.6stocks 43/29/69 shooting splits
LaMelo Ball 2020 Hawks: 31.3mpg/17pts/7.6reb/6.8ast/1.7stocks 38/25/72 shooting splits
Osmane Dieng 2022 New Zealand: 20mpg/8.9pts/3.2reb/1.1ast/0.9stocks 40/27/67 shootingsplits
