Jerel called up!!!

[ChicosBailBonds]

I forgot about that bet Mr. CBB. 

I am game, any New England area delicacies tickle your pickle?  Perhaps some fresh scallops, or a 5 lb. steamed lobster?

I love lobster, scallops and crab.  I'd go for any of those.  Some high end California wins you might interested in?  Or something else?

Let me say, I hope I lose this bet.  I like JFB a lot.  Would love to see him make it, seems like a good guy and he's certainly a Warrior.

[BobWildLoyalist]

anyone know how much his contract is worth?

TOTAL guess, but they play four games over the stretch of his contract.  Assuming he gets paid the minimum NBA salary (if that's how 10-day contracts work), it comes out to a little over $23k.  Not bad for 10 days.

($473,604/82)*4 = $23,102

Even if only for a week or so, 5 Warriors in the League at one time. Not too bad. Can't imagine when the last time that would have been the case. Back to the Al days?

Can't guarantee accuracy, but based upon a quick search:

1973: Chones, Kojis, Lackey, Meminger, McGuire (2 games), McNeill, Thompson
1974: Chones, Kojis, Lucas, McNeill, Meminger, Thompson

Great thanks for the research

[StillWarriors]

You almost nailed it.

Don't forget butch lee.

Will this go in the media guide?  The IU media guide?   

[StillWarriors]

Don't forget butch lee.

He's '78-'80

[Chicagobball]

FYI 10 days contracts in the NBA is 60k. If he ends up getting signed for the season then he gets paid league minimum which is 400k.

[StillWarriors]

I'm not questioning it, but it it strange that two 10 day contracts would earn someone 30% of a full minimum salary. Good for Jerel!

They already have the banner-raising ceremony scheduled for the home opener next year at II,II,II

[BossplayaOtto]

FYI 10 days contracts in the NBA is 60k. If he ends up getting signed for the season then he gets paid league minimum which is 400k.

I don't think 60k is totally accurate.  The minimum salary a 10-day contract can offer is the # of days in the contract divided by the # of days in the regular season multiplied by the minimum annual salary. Note that 10-day does not mean 10 games.

Example:
Minimum salary is $400,000
# of days in NBA regular season is 170

Salary = 10/170 x $400,000 = $23,529

So if Jerel signs a 2nd 10-day contact he will earn roughly $47k.  Still not a bad 3 weeks "work" and pretty close to the $60k you referenced.

Hope Jerel shows 'em (Hornets or opponents) that he sticks.

What's the likelihood of him even getting on the court? I imagine he's a backup to a backup, even with Paul out. Do guys who get called up due to an injury do anything more than practice and get some DNPs? (Not that he couldn't show some value at practice, and I certainly hope he does, and finds a way of not being let go.)

Novak got some limited PT when the Spurs called him up and apparently they liked him enough to give him a second 10-day contract then lock him up for the rest of the year.

Was Novak replacing an injured player, or were the Spurs looking for someone to fill a need? Seems to me that there might be a difference there.

True, Novak wasn't called up for an injury, and the Spurs have the luxury of tinkering with the end of their bench with a 5 game lead for the 1 seed while the Hornets are fighting for their playoff lives.  Bit of a difference.

Like you said, I hope he gets a chance to prove himself.

[seakm4]

My favorite one of the big 3 ever since i had to kick dom james out of my house for hooking up with my roommates gf.   He was so fun to watch on d.  on the ball or off of it i always watched him especially when we needed a big TO and he was going to jump a pass and one of the most intense people on a court i've ever seen.  I don't think i ever saw him smile.

[4everwarriors]

Nice, what kind of a house you runnin' when James had a daughter with another broad? No wonder he couldn't make a free throw or shoot. The dude was spent and couldn't concentrate.

[Buzz Williams' Spillproof Chiclets Cup]

What's the latest on Dom? Where is he playing?

Turkish league.

[leever]

Charlie Sheen sent Jerel a message reminding him to stay off weed

[wheresthecake?]

Turkish league.

Last year he was in Turkey.  This year he is in Bulgaria.

The Bucks picked up Garrett Temple on a 10-day contract in January and he played some decent minutes.
