Yeah he's from Michigan and he wants to play PG for us.

I thought that was him then he looked so short compared to Dowtin that I got confused

Does anyone know if Dowtin did actually grow a couple inches or is this photo some type of optical illusion
because his body in the photo does measure taller than EC and a slope wouldn't affect that. I guess if Dowtin was
slightly more forward than the others he could appear larger. I hope the answer is he grew two or three inches
which theoretically could be possible.

Well EC is listed at 6'5 and JD at 6'3 so from the looks of this pic JD may have grown to 6'6 as he looks about at least 2 inches taller than EC

The ground is not level in the picture you are referring to making JD look,taller and EC look shorter than reality.
This more "Even ground" pic gives a better perspective

Damn, Dowtin shrank.

We need to get these guys back to back to see if JD outgrew EC

Delroy James is playing for Team Fancy in the TBT.
They advanced to the Sweet 16 on Saturday by beating a Villanova alumni team.
James scored 21 points in the Round 2 contest and added 8 rebounds.
He was the high scorer in their Game 1 victory as well.
Team Fancy next plays on Thursday, July 20th, at 7PM on ESPN2.
Their opponent will be the Syracuse alumni featuring the likes of Devendorf, CJ Fair, etc.

For those who don't know, the TBT is a winner-take-all tournament featuring 64 teams playing for their share of $2 million.

Cat still has it! Big3 on FS1. Dropped 18 tonight(think it was taped this weekend). Announcers mentioned Rhody.

Cyril is a BIG BOY.... Man Child!!!

Leroy Butts never played a game here, but he was a recruit. I read a story about couple of days ago that he was shot several times during a home invasion and was fighting for his life. Very sad story.

	Per Bos below, it was Leroy's brother that was shot, not the player we were recruited.

How sad. Prayers with him and his family. Thanks for posting.

Kuran's development in all areas of his life while in Kingston under the guidance of Coach Hurley must not be underestimated.

Not sure where A10 news like this goes, but is of interest. These 2 guys end up much closer to home.

These two guys were the really high profile much heralded players that Kellogg got (especially 4star Jarreau). Didn't last long in Amherst and didn't do much while there (all be it they were just freshmen).

Yep. I would have thought one or both of these guys could have made the A10 All Freshmen Team but neither did. Was it them? Was it Kellogg? Was it a lack of team chemistry? Combination?
But for sure Jarreau did not meet expectations of a 4 Star, ESPN Nationally Ranked #63 Player

Jarreau needs to get in the weight room.

Oh, I'm sorry. I could have sworn the article said it was Leroy.

No worries. Leroy's father is named "Leroy Butts Sr." so the article mentions Leroy Butts Sr. I made the same assumption when I first read it, but after speaking to a few people, they confirmed it was his brother, and not Leroy who has committed here a few years back.

Lamar. In his own words....

Heard today that Hass will be playing in Japan next year. Got a really good deal and will be in Okinawa!

Just watched Hacksaw Ridge last night and watched some more stuff about the battle of Okinawa.
Then read this.
So I'm like, "HASS NO!!"
But Okinawa is like paradise now.. so good for him!

He can do well in Japan .... plus he's exposed to a whole new culture.

Makes me think of my favorite group, Spinal Tap. They were big in Japan.

Obviously not a Ram, but getting paid to play basketball is a pretty sweet deal if you can swing it, regardless of the country...

Nice good to see those guys back in RI

Heard that Hassan will be headed to Japan ? Can anyone confirm this ?

He Posted an Instagram story with the caption something like, "Next stop, Japan."

MTK4L wrote:Heard that Hassan will be headed to Japan ? Can anyone confirm this ?

Yep, he is playing in Japan and is over there already.

Okinawa to be exact.

I'm convinced there's poetry to be found in translated tweets. This one translates to:

Kings team unveils first round from 8 days to go! Every day has been practicing in earnest.
The offer shows just a little bit.

Good luck Has! I hope you link Japanese food.

Munford and Billy Baron will be on the AmericCup team coached by Jeff Van Gundy. Pretty cool! I'll definitely be watching if the games are on TV.

Billy and X on the watered down team USA.
Still it's really cool.
Hope we can watch them somehow.
For free preferably.

That is good exposure for them

Good luck to Four!

X with 20 points, 10 rebounds leads US to finals of FIBA AmeriCup. Play Argentina or Mexico tomorrow at 8:00 on ESPNU(208 DIRECTV)
Not an elite US team, but fun to watch and glad he had a breakout game today!

Nice job X is he starting or coming off the bench ??
