Great win against 4th opponent. 68-58. Still first on ranking 14/3 .
Referees are bad in B League but essentially in France in general, really, from both directions..

Davante played great with 20 points ( 9/13 ) - 12 rebounds with 28 of evaluation
MVP of the game.

Youngest team dominate B League §

Thanks for the update. Davante seems to be having a lot of fun.

Looks like he lost about a 100 lbs., hey?

For the beginning of the season, Davante averaged 15.8 points ( 65.8 % shooting from the field) , 7.1 rebounds, 4 fouls drawn per game for 25.6 minutes

I confirm that Davante has lost weight for his first game with HTV

I think this might be the closest thing to a smile I've ever seen from Davante

What are you talking about? Davante had the best smile on the team!

No words to describe the affluence of Davante in his team . New big win away against Charleville .
What a monster game !

28 points ( 9/13 , 1/2 three points !! ) - 8 rebounds - 6 fouls drawns in 32 minutes

Dangerous opponent Monaco and Roanne has lost. Still first with two win in advance !

Thanks as always! So if this team gets promoted to the higher league, do most of the players generally stay? Or would they need new ones to be able to compete?

(Just and FYI, "affluence" means wealth. "Influence" is likely the word you are looking for.)

Oh yes exactly, influence is better

I've recently known according to a French Basketball newspaper that Davante earn 2,500 euros per month.
HTV is ranked 16/18 on payroll this year so even in case of promotion, I could say that it will be difficult to save Davante in our team.

In B League, Teams can add 3 foreign players ( in fact, it's more complicated ). So when you join A League, you can have 5 foreign players, so; often, there is an important switch .
The reproach i do, in France, is that a coach will still prefer playing with second rate US players rather to use young french players..

HTV in B League with a small budget, plays with young players ( youngest team of the league ) and 3 top US players being able to dominate the league

According to a website , Before hiring Michael Wright, Cholet Basket ( France A League ) considered Davante Gardner. I guess, he prefers to stay and try to be MVP and champion with HTV rather to join a team ranked 15/18 in A league

Well, it sounds like he has a good chance at being in the A league next year after they move up anyway, right?

Promotion > Relegation

Currently, Davante is one level up from others players in this league. He dominates and I think, he would have the level to play in A League, for sure.

I don't know if Davante will stay there next season, because his salary is underrated. But, for his first professional season, it's amazing. I guess, he will finish this season with HTV and that's a good point for him and the team

Would rather see Devante in the NBA, balling with guys like Buycks, Blue, Novak, Wes, DJO, Wade, Butler, etc.

As of right now, 2,500 Euros is approximately $2,800. I have also heard that European teams pay the taxes on your salary as well as providing living arrangements. Is that correct? If so, $2,800/month is decent money without living expenses, and my experience in Europe is that public transit basically eliminates the need for a car. That sounds pretty good to me.

Not sure what Davante has worked out, but a lot of employers in Europe let you have a free car lease as well.

New big win at home against Orchies ( 84-73 )

Davante played 29 minutes for 19 points ( 8/11 and 2/2 three points ! ) - 8 rebounds.
He is greater than the others. Still first, it smells good for the rest ...

TJThompson · « **Reply #199 on:** February 13, 2015, 05:07:33 PM »

Win against BC Angers away 68-78.

Definitely, Davante played so great : 21 points ( 8/12 ), 9 rebounds, 7 fouls drawn in 30 minutes!
First place's opponents, Monaco and Roanne have lost. At this time, HTV has 3 and 4 wins in advance at the top of the ranking !

HTV - 17/3!
