Yeah but he still gets a ring though
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 Yep, it counts!
-
He's one of my favorites who made his mark on the court! I forgot to add that I grew up in Bloomington, MN, his hometown too. That's why he was a favorite of mine.
He’s still ballin! Good luck to Jayhawk great @JeffWithey in the @IBLindonesia Finals starting tomorrow!

Looks like Jeff finally bulked up a bit. Added some muscle. Looks good.

Kendrick Perkins discussing the three best leaders he played with in the NBA:
Nick Collison — “Best teammate I ever had.
When you talk about losing yourself in the team, he was the true definition of that. The best thing about Nick was that he never switched up.
A lot of guys would change throughout the course of the season. When the team was doing well but you weren’t doing well individually, you caught a lot of guys, including myself, with an attitude. That was never Nick. Whether he was getting 20 minutes or zero minutes, he never changed.
Always positive. Always hardworking. Always looking out for the betterment of the team.
And when he did hold you accountable, it wasn’t in an aggressive manner. It was just like: “Hey, man, we need you, but you’ve got to do better here. I’ve got your back 1,000 percent.”
“My bad, Nick, I’ve got you. I apologize.”
“No, no, no. No need to be sorry. We’re in this together.”
He would run through a wall for you. After I got traded to Oklahoma City in 2011, we matched up against the Lakers in the playoffs in 2012.
My points weren’t there in game five, but I think I had 13 or 14 rebounds. I remember after the game Nick said: “You won that damn game for us. Those rebounds didn’t go unnoticed. You played your f—ing ass off, boy. Proud of you.”
I was somewhat the leader of that squad with Nick, but right then he didn’t even know what that did for me. I was like: Dang, Nick just gave me props. That felt good coming from Nick.”

Updates on Och and Jaylen
The Nets passed on an $8.77MM QO for swingman Ochai Agbaji, the former No. 14 overall pick, according to Scotto (Twitter link). Agbaji and forward Jalen Wilson, who wasn’t tendered a $3MM QO, will be headed to unrestricted free agency after playing reserve roles for Brooklyn to finish the season.

Kelly Oubre article if anybody is interested. Discusses his fit with the Pacers.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk I, of course, did lol. No mention of Johnny Furphy that I could find. I think this goes under the radar when talking about Kelly:
Insert Oubre, who is one of just 32 players who has averaged over 11 points per game since 2017-18.
-
I read a Furphy update the other day. this wasn't it, but a start:

Furph was doing pretty darn good before getting hurt, love that kid! Wish he would've stayed one more yr.
