Naz Reid initially was slated for a 2-way deal. After strong Vegas showing, Rosas says Reid has been signed to a multi year deal and will be a part of the regular roster.

I still think he needs to continue to develop, but I'm happy he has been given this opportunity. He seems like a kid that will make the most of the situation. I wish him the best!

Great news. I had my doubts. Now it’s up to him to get that big second contract and stay in the league.

Another example of the basketball know nothings making judgments on a player's decision without a tenth of the knowledge that the player, his family, the coaches, and his advisors are privy to.

Nice money for a young man! I think he will be a huge hit in Minny; he has that T-wolf look about him. Big toothy smile if you know what I mean.

So happy to see former tigers have some early success in the pros, but how is he dominating this well against pro prospects when he couldn’t in college? Is it just the smaller sample size, did he already improve that much, or was it lack of effort?
College: 13.6ppg, 7.2rpg, 0.9apg, 33.3%3PT
SL: 23ppg, 10.5rpg, 3.9apg, 38.1%3PT

A lot of the defense played in summer league made James harden look like the defensive MVP. Also with multiple “guys” on the team, he wasn’t getting all of the defensive attention.

While I am happy for the young man this is FAR from falling under the category of "making it in the NBA". This contract is peanuts and only illustrates them taking a chance on his potential. He has a lot of room for improvement.

His style of play is much better suited for the NBA than college basketball

your a retard. he's going to make $1.5 Mill. what did you make in your first year out of college?
Obviously there is a lot of growth potential for him. But why not be happy for a former player, congratulate him on a huge accomplishment and support him going forward.

The geniuses don't know much football either.

They said Kwon Alexander would never be an inside or middle linebacker in the NFL.

Kwon started his very first game in the NFL at middle linebacker and has played the position ever since.

He played in the 2017 pro bowl and was signed by the San Francisco 49ers to a four-year, $54 million contract that includes $27 million guaranteed this year.

But Rantards can tell you with a gleam in their eye that he will never be a middle linebacker in the NFL.
