MU Players in NBA Summer League
« on: July 04, 2015, 01:38:33 PM »
The NBA Summer League began yesterday, and here's a list of former MU players playing this year.

Trent Lockett - Indiana Pacers
Dwight Buycks - Los Angeles Lakers
Jamil Wilson - Washington Wizards

*Liam McMorrow - Los Angeles Clippers
*D.J. Newbill - Los Angeles Clippers

The summer league just started and continues throughout July with some teams not playing until the end of July. I assume this means that some teams are still filling out their rosters and that Blue, Gardner, Carlino, and maybe some others will get a chance. Heck, if Josh Gasser and Duje Dukan (Nets and Hornets, respectively) can make rosters I sure hope some Marquette players can...

awesome. I just ranked the top 37 on Cracked Sidewalks, and I really want to make it a top 40! However, Ellenson can wait a few years please.

Watched a bit of McMorrow today.  I think he's got backup NBA talent.  Can't coach 7' 2".

My memory has faded.  Was he the MU guy with health issues?

Maybe he can beat out Rose for the starting PG position. One can hope.

He'd have to beat out Aaron Brooks first and that ain't happening either.

Wishful thinking. Anything to push Rose away from the Bulls.

Jerel is playing on the Suns summer team. A report says his contract isn't guaranteed.

Buycks was the only one who played on the first day of the Vegas summer league, and it didn't go so well.

19 min  0 pts  0-5 fga  1 reb  2 stl  3 TO.

Blue, Jerel, Buycks, and Jamil all play today.

That might be all she wrote for his NBA career.

Does anyone know if Newbill filled out his application to play for the Clippers?

Watching Vander Blue playing for the Bulls and I'm not seeing anything that indicates he has any sort of prolonged future in the NBA.

Completely agree, but he is making a couple headlines: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=13280824

Vander is the only guy left with a high ceiling among the MU FAs.
Followed by Buycks then Lockett and Jamil.
I think Jerel's at the end of his opportunity. If he could play in Europe or Asia, he'd do well financially for himself.

I have to think Buycks has done well for himself.  One full year in the NBA, and a couple of decent seasons in Europe have hopefully added up to a decent bank account.

I dunno. Id much rather have Vander as the Bulls 3rd PG/SG option rather then Hinrich.

Ya, but I think that says more about Kirk than Vander.

Especially if he had a bonus clause in his contract for that MVP trophy.

Probably correct.  Pleased that he saw some court time last year.  He'll always have that.  Absolutely time to maximize the paycheck.  Good luck Jerel.

What???? :o

You must have bumped your head. Vander should be on an NBA roster right now.

Hinrich at this stage does not hold a lit candle to Blue now. But Hoilberg won't cut him. Isn't Hinrich from Iowa? That would be a hard cut.

Blue is better than most 3rd string guards on 80% of the teams in the league what are you typing about?
 
He has IMPROVED. I only wish the Bucks would invite him in instead of the darn Bulls.

I would be highly perturbed if they have both Jimmy B and Vander on that team being our arch rivals.

But I can't understand your sarcastic comment that "that might be saying more about Hinrich than Vander." What the hell does that mean?

If you are making a smart remark about Vander Blue you need to do your homework. He has elevated his game. I know, I have seen him and taken note. He is a Pro.
