I heard a rumor but is this legit?

What is this about?

Sammy Hunter posted this on his Instagram. Love to see them all still connected like this!

Nate Johnson made his Summer League debut with OKC yesterday. He played 7 minutes and committed 3 fouls...no other stats recorded. They play again tonight at 9 PM.

It was an unfortunate game for the Bahamas team - Buddy Hield only played 7 minutes due to some sort of injury and VJ Edgecombe fouled out in the 3rd quarter. Hunter had 5 points in 24 minutes, while Clarke only played 2. Freeman had 13 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 steals in 28 minutes. Both Puerto Rico and the Bahamas advanced to the second round of FIBA World Cup Americas Qualifiers.

I believe his college career is over unless the NCAA changes their most recent ruling on eligibility.

Enrique Freeman and Sammy Hunter are currently playing each other in FIBA qualifiers. Nate Johnson is playing for OKC in the Sunmer League.

Shammah posted an Instagram story that looks like he was working out with the Cavs or Charge. Anyone know any details?

Better late than never.

I assume his agent will shop his services around, especially if someone would be willing to give him a standard contract, but you're 100% correct in that this is good news that he at least has a spot.

Wonder if Minnesota will consider Enrique.

I think waivers are gone now as long as this holds up.

I believe this would mean Bowen Hardman's collegiate career is over.

I still think Stankovic can be a good player. Coming to the United States without a full summer of preparation had to be difficult. He absolutely showed flashes of talent at times, he just wasn't consistent or polished enough to be out there when it mattered.

Both. But winning three games when everyone has equal rest vs winning two games with one or two less games than your opponent is a pretty clear advantage for the higher seed.

It is a fact that during the double-bye era, the #1 and #2 seeds consistently made it to the championship game. If the goal of the MAC is to reward the top seeds for regular season performance and increase the odds of their champion being a top seed, that format absolutely accomplished that goal previously.

From 2012-2015, the 1 and 2 seeds received byes to the semifinals. The championship games each of those years were: 2012: #3 Ohio over #1 Akron 2013: #1 Akron over #2 Ohio 2014: #1 WMU over #2 Toledo 2015: #2 Buffalo over #1 CMU In six years of the current format, the #1 seed has only won the tournament once, and only reached the championship game one other time. The format certainly doesn't preclude the top seeds from winning the tournament, but there was a clear reward for the top two teams during the double-bye era, given the championship game was #1 vs #2 in 3 of the 4 seasons.
