Jeremy Wise

Jeremy Wise - Wise went undrafted this summer, and returned to the D-League with the Bakersfield Jam. Unfortunately, his numbers are almost exactly what they were last season, with but one exception. Wise is averaging 15.8 points and 5.8 assists, but he's also averaging 4 turnovers per game, up from 2.6 last season. He's also shooting 47% from the field; good for a 6'2 scoring guard, but down from last season's 52%. Wise looked like an interesting prospect last season, and earned a stint with the Warriors in summer league, but this is not a good time to stagnate.

Last month, Wise was looking to join the list of players drafted out of the D-League, a list that currently features only two other players (Mike Taylor and Latavious Williams). His D-League season was pretty outstanding; 16.6 points per game on 52%/38%/86% shooting in only 31 minutes per game, with a 2:1 assist to turnover ratio, terrific ballhandling, athleticism and transition play. Wise is small, more of a scorer than a creator and not much of a defender, but there's a lot of scoring talent in the little bugger, even if he only drives left. However, due to the nature of this year's second round, Wise did not get picked.

On his Twitter account, Wise lists his occupation as "Ball Player and Entrepreneur". Is it possible to be an entrepeneur when you're a professional basketball player whose only paycheck to date came from the incredibly badly paid D-League?
