Basketball writing, scouting reports and salary cap analysis from the archive.
- Charlie Ward retired in 2004, and briefly became an assistant coach with the Rockets . However, he left that gig, and has instead found a place and a job that caters to his three biggest passions in life; basketball, American football, and Christianity. Ward is now the…
I don't know how to tell you this; there's also only about three of these Where Are They Now posts left before we reach the human terminus that is Eurelijius Zukauskas . And I've already played my joker with the (simply astonishing) Ejike Ugboaja story. And I'm not…
- Larry Turner is signed with the powerhouse Vermont Frost Heaves in the even more powerhouse Premier Basketball League. Averages don't appear to an option, but here's a recent boxscore . Would you be able to look at that box score and pick out Larry Turner, of all…
- Lucas Tischer was recently waived by his Israeli team, Altshuler Saham Galil Gilboa, presumably for poor performance. Tischer averaged a stonking 3.6 points, 2.3 fouls and 2.1 rebounds in the Israeli league - Anthony Tolliver bounced back and forth between the NBA and the D-League this…
- Jamaal Tatum was the strange beneficiary of a training camp contract by the Portland Trail Blazers this summer, but unsurprisingly lost out on the 15th roster spot (which, surprisingly, Shavlik Randolph won). Tatum promptly returned to his D-League team of last season, the Idaho Stampede , for…
- Vlade Divac is currently trying to become President of the Serbian Olympic Committee. Never thought I'd say that about anybody, but there it is. - Nigel Dixon was in China to start the season, but left in the new year. Dixon averaged 26.3 points and 9.8 rebounds…
- D.J. Strawberry is with Fortitudo Bologna, the same team as GMAC Bologna, but not the same team as La Fortezza Bologna. Can't stress that enough. Strawberry averages 14.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists in EuroCup play, alongside 13.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in the…
- Tiago Splitter is into his sixth season with Tau Vitoria, averaging 16.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game in the Spanish league, alongside 15.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in the Spanish league. Splitter recently missed a couple of weeks with a torn muscle…
The following post will make you hate the word Smith. - Charles Smith is with everyone's favourite delicatessen, Efes Pilsen, where he averages 14.7 points in the Turkish league and 12.0 points in the EuroLeague. - Donta Smith is in Australia, which sort of has a…
- Chester "Tre" Simmons is signed with Maccabi Tel-Aviv, but is not in the rotation, averaging only 9.7 minutes and 4 points per game in the Israeli league with several DNP's thrown in. Simmons was also this week reportedly involved in a fight in (and outside) a nightclub…
- Renaldas Seibutis is part of a deep Iurbentia Bilbao team, averaging 10.7 points and 1.6 rebounds in the EuroCup, alongside 6.6 points and 1.7 rebounds in the Spanish league. - Now is the time to refamiliarise yourself with Warriors great, Mladen Sekularac . Mladen was drafted in…
- Jamal Sampson started the year in China (woop!), but unfortunately his averages were rather normal. Sampson averaged 10.7 points and 10.7 rebounds for the DongGuan New Century Leopards, before being replaced in early February by Cory Underwood , the team clearly realising that if Olumide Oyedije can…
I suppose I ought really ask - are you enjoying these? Really? I'd like some feedback on this. I mean, even if you don't enjoy them I'm doing them anyway, because despite how tedious it can get trying to find new and exciting ways to list someone's rebounding…
The results [result] are [is] in - one person likes these lists, no one said they didn't, and everyone else absconded. That's good enough for me, and the risk of alienating folks is minimal given that I seemingly have a readership of about 12 people, so here's a…
- For Orlando fans wondering how Milovan Rakovic is doing, here's some numbers; for Spartak St Petersburg in Russia (not Florida), Rakovic is averaging 7.2 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.4 fouls through 16 games in the Russian league. But as underwhelming as those numbers are - particularly those…
