2010 KBL Draft Results

July 24th, 2010

The South Korean basketball league (KBL) is an interesting one. Much like the Chinese Basketball Association, it is interesting for three main reasons; 1) It’s full of import players that you’ve heard of, 2) The domestic players’ talent level is pretty bad, 3) The import players’ talent level is pretty good. This leads to huge statistics from players that you’ve heard of. And that can never be bad. The KBL employs a draft process for its import players that is better described here. Also at that link is the list of 165 players who registered for the KBL’s draft pool; it is from that list that the drafted players were chosen. That listed was whittled down from 224 to 165, and it is reproduced below for no real reason. 1 1 Alfred Aboya 85.01.02 UCLA 2 6 Jeff Adrien 86.02.10 Connecticut 3 7 Uka Agbai 81.05.07 Boston College 4 8 Dokun Akingbade 84.06.05 George Washington 5 15 Ramel Allen 79.06.05 Bridgeport 6 19 Serge Angounou 83.09.01 Arizona 7 24 Julius Ashby 82.09.16 Univ. of Colorado 8 30 Kyle Austin 88.10.18 UC Riverside 9 35 Alpha Bangura 80.02.04 St Johns Univ. 10 39 Ousmane Barro 84.12.07 Marquette 11 41 Nashid Beard 83.02.16 Lamar 12 43 Romel Beck 82.05.29 UNLV 13 46 Rashad Bell 82.09.23 Boston 14 48 Rodrigue Benson 84.10.10 Cal State-Berkeley 15 54 Odartey Blankson 82.03.12 UNLV 16 62 Drelke Bouldin 80.07.08 Fresno State NCAA 17 63 Ruben Boumtje 78.05.20 Georgetown 18 68 Torraye Braggs 76.03.15 Xavier 19 69 Micah Brand 80.10.18 Massachusetts 20 70 Craig Bradshaw 83.07.28 Winthrop 21 86 Robert Brown 80.02.17 Buffalo 22 88 Keith Brumbaugh 85.09.29 Hillsbrough JC 23 89 John Bryant 87.06.13 Santa Clara 24 111 Dennis Carr 81.01.27 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Univ. 25 117 Marquin Chandler 82.03.11 San Jose St.Univ. 26 123 Ivory Clark 85.06.01 […]
