I don't read tons of sports articles, but this is the first time I have seen Jae being referred to as a Top 100 NBA player.  Kudos!

Did Wes just break into the 100 last year? Shame he fell out

[oldwarrior81]

Wesley was #92 last year.

He improved his scoring, shooting %, assists, rebounds, and steals from the previous season but still dropped out.   
He ranked about 70th in the league in scoring average, assists and steals.


The espn list dropped Wade from the top 100.  From #2 to out of the top 100 in 5 years.
Dwight Howard also out of the top 100.

Carmelo was #64 on the espn list.  Right behind Lonzo Ball before Ball plays his first game.  And one spot ahead of Marcus Smart, the reserve guard for the Celtics.

Wait DePaul has one?  The same as Syracuse?  Who the heck is it?

[oldwarrior81]

the only DePaul guy in the NBA is Wilson Chandler.  Top 100?

Wilson Chandler is Top 100, but Wade isn't?

Suspect.

[rocket surgeon]

joel embiid??  good player, but has he played even a full season yet?

   the 3rd pick in the 2014 draft-31 games??  and that was last season...only.  then he got hurt again

List clearly suspect because Badger fans always talk about how much better our players would  be in NBA if they went to UW yet we have 3 top 100 and they have none. 

[GB Warrior]

Marvin Williams sure has managed to hang around, hasn't he. AJ Hawk-esque.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Dekker isn't top 100?

Dekker isn't top 100?

ESPN and SI clearly don't like players who went to Ivy League schools and not JUCOs...

From Dekker's UW junior year bio page:

"Personal
Born in Sheboygan, Wis. ... parents are Todd and Carol ... father, Todd, served as his high school coach at Lutheran ... has two older siblings, John and Hannah ... major is undecided"

Cut him some slack.  He is an UW-Madison student athlete.  He was deciding between Chemical & Biological Engineering or Applied Mathematics.

I thought UW jocks defaulted to agricultural studies.

Dekker isn't top 100?

He's hitting the dekker here.

Header! Not athletic enough, faked himself out

[GooooMarquette]

Typical rodent - flopping even though there was no contact. 

It was probably just an instinctual move....

[Dr. Blackheart]

Triple Crown of turnovers.  A palm, a walk and a header all on the same play.

Could have been quite the header from a corner kick
