Hopefully Put gets his paychecks. The Venezuelan economy is an absolute wreck right now.

Back in the States as one of forty to be invited to the NBADL Elite Mini Camp.

A chance to show the NBA scouts what you can offer. Some of you may be able to dissect the measurements, but Put did show well in the "reach" and "wingspan" categories.

No invite for Cady, but teammate and ex-Bonnie Ndoye is there.

^ Cady is the property of the Spurs so it would be a waste to have him playing before the other 29 teams scouts at this point until the Spurs decide what to do with him this summer.

^ Good point, Preeecher.

As for Raph, he gets some press for his DLeague Showcase performance as one of the top ten moments of the season.

Anybody know where they're getting that from?

Very clever. Of course it took me 2 tries before I figured it out.

The rumors of the transaction were overheard in Mayfair.

As for me, I am SOHOpeful that he makes the roster.

Cavs start their summer league play on Friday. Their roster isn't up yet.

If memory serves, these rosters don't get finalized until the last minute.
