Michigan Players in the NBA

I think it’d be fun to have Caris and Duncan hanging around down the road at Crisler from time to time. Might as well re-sign Hardaway and sign Mo Wagner too. Dusty will have an NBA crew at his disposal

wow Nuggs are looking hot. did they keep their interim coach?

yes they did. Should be top 4 in the West again. Not sure if they’re quite good enough to overcome the Thunder, THJ is not really moving the needle there

probably third behind the Rockets right

The Nuggets plan is likely to reset their tax clock this year then go all out the next if they can. But doing that while also not making your team worse is good

Say what you want about Tim Hardaway Jr.'s pro career, but the longevity alone is freaking impressive.

First UM Hoops mention about him was in 2008 as an unknown 3-star recruit… and he’s still cashing NBA checks and made over $150 mil.

Not bad.

Yep added Cam Johnson, Valanciunas, Hardaway and Brown while only really losing Porter. Denver stock way up. Houston’s stock is just up even more than that. And OKC just won a title.

If there’s anything to learn from the new tax stuff and the thunder/pacers/twolves run it is probably that an overpay contract for a guy like MPJ makes it impossible to have enough depth without going crazy on overall payroll.

And also Jokic is so good they still were right there

Duncan Robinson is going to make over $100 million playing basketball.

Incredible journey. I don’t think there’s anyone who came anywhere close to predicting half of it.

He’s been doubted at every step of the way.

Just remarkable.

I’d like to see where Michigan players rank on a “millions made in the NBA” graphic since 2010

Sounds like Sleepers content that would slap, tbh.
