Dwight Buycks putting in work!

[Ben Golds Five]

Dwight Buycks was outstanding in an 83-81 championship-clinching win over the Pistons on Thursday, scoring 28 points with five rebounds, six assists, three steals and two 3-pointers in 40 minutes.
The Mavs needed overtime to get the Orlando Pro Summer League victory. Buycks has been Mr. Summer League at times and it even earned him some money on the Raptors a few years ago, but Buycks hasn't been in the NBA since 2015. He'll likely get a camp deal and could crack a roster at age 28.

[MattyWarrior]

I watched some of his games, he looks real steady and could make a roster as a back-up PG!

HE nocken 'em dead two, ai na?

[#UnleashNigel]

IS there a chance he doesn't participate in  TBT?

Oh yeah

[wadesworld]

I have been saying since last year's TBT I'd give Buycks a shot if I were the Bucks.  I'd take him over Delly if I pay him a under a million compared to Delly's 9.

If you paid Dwight under a million you'd be violating the CBA.

Sources: Knicks have expressed interest in signing Dwight Buycks. Buycks impressed NYK in SL, where he averaged 17.8 PPG & 4.2 APG for DAL.

Definitely put out there by his agent. Same thing happened last year.  Think he either gets a guaranteed contract before training camp starts or he's off to a foreign land to get paid. Not taking the Vander G-League MVP route. Not sure what the book is on him, maybe he doesn't shoot well enough from that spot. .504efg and .540ts% in summer league play, but only 7-24 from three.

He's also 28.  Not exactly a huge upside, but not enough NBA experience to be the steady veteran hand off the bench.

Agreed.  If I'm Dwight, I'd only consider a guaranteed contract.  He'll make bank overseas.

Hopefully Vander takes some notes from Buycks, who seems to be doing things right.  Vander has about 5 years left to make the type of money in Europe that could support him for the rest of his life.

How would the new D-league call-up spots possibly affect Buycks & Vander's decision making? Might that be a better option than overseas now? Brings the risk/reward of being a borderline NBA player more in balance?

Neither qualify for these spots as Each is beyond the 3 year experience threshold.

age discrimination?  i'm sure they've got that covered as it's too obvious

Not an age clause, heyna

Part of the CBA as well.

What kind of salary would Blue make overseas?
