KP was one of those that came down with Covid.


He really was off to a fantastic start to the season, but I am sure this is nothing.

Still seems weird as he was likely making more money in Israel than he would be on a two-way contract (max = ~$250k).

I suppose it is a method for the two-way to allow him to stay on the Wizards...

Maccabi Rishon LeZion announced the departure of Johnathan Williams on Monday noting that the 24-year-old American forward received an attracting offer from the NBA. The Washington Wizards are...

The was fully expected and the plan from the beginning. Stockton was never brought in for a role on the Lakers. He was brought in purposely for the G-League South Bay Lakers - to run their team and...

I've heard that, but I didn't mention it here so maybe Milehigh commented on it. However it very clear being drafted in the 2nd round, especially the late second, can be more detrimental than going...

Yeah, but Pangos had a pretty rough season in Barca last year to the point that they felt he couldn't run as the lead PG and had to bring in Malcolm Delaney over top him (lead PG Thomas Heurtal had a...

Yeah - China is hard to judge. There is a tight quota on foreign talent and the pay is very high for them. But in general the leagues suck. So you here of big names over (lots of ex-NBA guys) there...

According to Sportrac JWIII made $127,250 last year.

He was on a 2-way contract last year with the Lakers and is frankly a little old for a...

I'm not sure about that.

He had an offer to join the Aussie NBL as part of their Next Stars program that Lamelo Ball, RJ Hampton and others are doing (looks like a great program). But he decided...

Zach signed a 2-way deal with the Lakers. That likely means he spends much of the season going back and forth with the G and the NBA. Literally he will play a game with the G one night and be on the...

If I had to rank the pay rates it is likely the EuroLeague guys first (Pangos, NWG last year) then the EuroCup (Daye, JWIII) then the BCL guys - however Brose (Harris) has been a EuroLeague team in...

Yeah - you almost have to look at like if the NCAA was a professional league. Perhaps as an example consider that like the WCC there can be some a very "rich" clubs (ie Gonzaga), a secondary club or...

Pretty sure Karno was not part of Poland's camp invite list. Probably hurt still.
And did you confirm Ira Brown is on Japan? I thought they replaced him with a better import.


I'll be surprised...

Israel isn’t a great domestic league but it is a EuroCup participant so he will have ample opportunity to show his stuff. He seems like a guy who could climb up to a EuroLeague club in a couple...

Kyle moving on from Unicaja - Spanish ACB and EuroCup to Turk Telecom - Turkish TBL and FIBA Champions League (EuroCup last season).

This has to be viewed as a step down (maybe just a small step)...

First reaction is this hurts - but TT is not better than KO/Powell/Birch and this could open the door for a younger guy like Lyles, Boucher and yes, I'll admit maybe even Clarke now.

I think I was one of the earliest and most intense humpers of Clarke's leg on this board, but to think he is a better player at this time than Dwight Powell or Khem Birch is some serious homerism...

Historically it is very, VERY rare for any NBA rookie to play FIBA the year they are drafted. It rarely does happen, with Sabonis, being one of the only I can remember in years and years. Maybe one...
