NBA Summer League

[CBB_Fan]

This is the type of stuff I'm hearing from Raptors fans:

van vleet is a baller. i think he's got a good chance to stick in the league.

Having a good game tonight. I honestly think he's one of the most fundamentally sound players I've ever seen, on any level. Not just shooting touch or dribbling. His head is always up looking at passing lanes, he actively moves on defense not only to cover his man but to put himself in position to help, he aggressively looks to box out even if it takes him half way across the court. He's doing these things in a random Summer League game, which is something you just don't see.

Even if HCGM starts bringing in 5 star recruits, we just aren't going to have another player that makes as few mistakes as he did in his college career.

Plus 4 rebounds and 1 assist. Several great passes just guys not hitting shots. Playing with Wright now.

It doesn't really matter that they don't make them though, the coaches will note that it's a good pass to give a guy a good shot.

Fred just signed a mulit-year deal with the Raptors!!

Basically a training camp deal, then if they cut him he gets guaranteed $$ and can play anywhere or with the D-League team... win-win is what I think, but who knows for sure!!

[Ricardo del Rio]

The D-League is sort of separate from the NBA. Not all NBA teams are a "parent" of a D-League team. D-League players aren't guaranteed the minimum salary in the NBA. etc.

Thanks to you and all for the NBA information.

As you can tell, I have never particularly cared for the pro game and consequently, I have not followed it.

Since we have three players in the NBA, I have more interest. I am counting on Cle landing some place.

[Play Angry]

Could not be happier for Fred.

smart (playoff) team. i think he makes the roster and helps them.

Tears of joy. So proud of him and couldn't be happier.

Way to go Fred !

[tropicalshox]

The Raptors have one spot left on their 15 man roster. If they don't sign anybody else, Fred has made it.

Just go ahead and tell Fred he can't do something, see how that works out for you.
