Isaac Hamilton SG - 6'4, 185lbs - Born 14th May 1994 Canton Charge Hamilton could be a good role player if he fully embraced a role. Slightly undersized for a high-level two-guard yet smooth and fluid in his motion, with enough speed to be competitive, Hamilton has good…
Chance Comanche PF/C - 6'10, 210lbs - Born 14th April 1996 Canton Charge Fair play to anyone in any professional who has a marketable skill and who seeks to get paid for it. So you should (says Mark in his free Manifesto). Having not done much in his…
Nigel Johnson PG - 6'1, 190lbs - Born 20th January 1995 Canton Charge In four years at three prominent schools - Rutgers counts as prominent, despite the profound struggles of, ooh, the last forty years or so - Johnson never once cracked the 40% shooting mark from the…
Malik Newman SG - 6'3, 190lbs - Born 21st February 1997 Canton Charge Newman’s first professional season was a strange one. Leaving Kansas after his sophomore season, he went undrafted, went to summer league with the L.A. Lakers, signed a two-way contract with them on the first possible…
Malachi Richardson SG - 6'4, 200lbs - Born 5th January 1996 Canton Charge Richardson was picked up by the Charge at the end of the G-League season, with not even enough time to appear in a single game. He had spent the majority of the year in the…
JaCorey Williams PF - 6'8, 220lbs - Born 12th June 1994 Canton Charge Williams has intrigued the Cavaliers for sometime now. They have signed him for each of the last two training camps and allocated him to Canton both times; they are clearly none too subtle about wanting…
Scoochie Smith PG - 6'2, 180lbs - Born 11th November 1994 Canton Charge Smith spent his first professional season mostly in Australia with the Cairns Taipans, yet for whatever reason, the Australian season ends very early. This thus gave him time to return to America and be picked…
Levi Randolph SG - 6'6, 210lbs - Born 3rd October 1992 Canton Charge I am glad that Randolph is giving it a go in the G-League before he enters the prime of his career and before it is too late for a call-up, because I really feel he…
Phil Carr SF/PF - 6'8, 200lbs - Born 20th October 1995 Canton Charge Although his first professional season started off with a one-day contract with the New York Knicks in order to get him allocated to Westchester, Carr was waived out of the Knicks organisation altogether when Westchester…
Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman SG - 6'4, 190lbs - Born 1st September 1994 Canton Charge Bobby Longname spent his first professional season with the Charge after making the roster initially as a local tryout player. He came in with a solid role player résumé; good shooter, good defender, part-time point…
