NBL news

The Tigers are looking for either an import or a local youngster to fill David Smith's vacant position. It looks like Neil Mottram might not recover from injury in time.

And the Herald Sun is reporting that Jason Smith (Kings) "has received an offer from division two team Ferrara" in Italy which backs up my info last week. A dent in Sydney's aspirations then?

Matt Nielsen has had more success in the summer leagues with 12 points (4/5 + 4/4) 7 rebounds and 3 assists in only 16 minutes for Denver against Phoenix. He was the second-top scorer for his team.

Matt Garrison scored well in the Southern Californian league, picking up 17 (8/12) in under 15 minutes. Second top scorer despite spending almost the least time on court for his team. Sean Rooks (NBA exp, right?) had 33 minutes for 6 points and 9 rebounds and (somehow) 7 fouls?

Yeah - they generally don't much care about fouls in those leagues. Some players have had double figures this year.

Sean Rooks was a 1st round draft choice in '92. Bit past him prime now, he's 34 or so.

Crocs have signed Robert Brown (6'5") with what they confess was the very little money they had to spare under the cap.

Brown averaged 18.8 points (ninth in the league) and 7.1 rebounds per game from 30 games in the USBL last season and was equal third in FG% with 58%.

Bobby Brown is playing for the Crocs? Is Whitney Houston singing the anthem?

Mueller is apparently very close to signing with the Hawks. They'd expressed a joint interest before, but I think this is becoming a little more official.
