Marquette NBA Thread

[Skatastrophy]

Have you seen it announced that he actually has COVID?  I saw he's in protocols.  He was in protocol back in March but that was due to contact tracing.  A bunch of Nuggets are out so I wonder if its the same issue

Good pushback. Just protocols officially. The fanbase is certain he'll be out for the rest of the summer, but groupthink doesn't really amount to much.

If a player is vaccinated, is he required to sit if he was in close contact with someone who tested positive?

I thought the NBA said there are no quarantine requirements following contact tracing issues.

A couple of the other guys that were out right away with him have returned I believe.

So if Markus doesnt actually have symptoms he appears to be testing positive.

Deonte Burton re-emerged in the NBA Summer League for the Nuggets .

Hopefully it’s fake. Jae has had a tough go of it on social media and his love life.

Sliding into someone's DMs is a thing.  Nothing embarrassing about it.  Anytime he messages anyone this could happen and I'm sure he isn't worried about it.

Did he actually propose or was this a joke thing?

You’re not asking this question seriously, are you?

I dunno, I don't exactly keep up to tabs on Celeb news even when they're MU affiliated.

Agreed, I didn't know anything either, so I googled it for you.  Quite the story:

Headaches like this are one reason I didn't pursue a career in the NBA.



That, and being terrible at basketball.

Haven’t verified but cool if true.
Dwyane Wade is the shortest person ever in the NBA to reach 1000 dunks.

Dwyane Wade is the shortest person ever in the NBA to reach 1000 dunks.

Similarly, he owns the NBA blocks record for players 6'4" & under by a country mile (set the record in 2013 then racked up 200+ more after that)

Unreal combination of instincts, awareness, and explosiveness

Don't forget long-ass arms! 6'11" wing span on a 6'4" guard.

Sounds like this Wade guy was quite a player.

Who knew?

My Wade bobble head is the coolest thing in my office. Love that guy.

Sorry if I missed this somewhere else, but Jonathan Givony (of draftexpress.com) released his 2022 NBA Draft Top 100 today, and Justin Lewis checked in at #40.  Link below but behind a paywall.  His mock draft from about a month ago had Lewis going #39 to the Kings.

Wow.

I like JL and I think he can be a nice college player. But looking at him, I didn't see a top-30 player in the entire nation -- which is basically what he is if he's going 39th, what with international players not at US colleges mixed in.

If he plays to that level, it will bode very well for the upcoming season!

I see him as a top 30 player when I put my blue and gold glasses on.

Seriously,  I think he has NBA talent but not now. Pat myself on the back, I said Jimmy was NBA talent his first year at MU.  I also endorsed Wojo's extension.  So take it for what is worth.  Not much.
