This sucks. I heard that because of Bruno moving to Fort Wayne, BrunoSkull also left for the Fort Wayne board. There goes all of our gifs and and1's...

The Toronto Raptors gave Bruno Caboclo a Christmas present by sending him packing
to the D-League Fort Wayne Mad Ants.
Didn't he bring some of his family up to spend some time with him during the holidays.
I'm sure if he is feeling home sick this move will definitely help.

Im anxious to see what Bruno can offer even if its just 15-20 min. I expect alot of cringe worthy moments but he's still a kid and at least a few years from contributing

All I've found are Tshirts and hoodies. If you find somewhere to get jerseys let us know.

This is good for Bruno. Also gives us a roster spot to sign Rasheed Wallace

Needs to learn to pick and choose his spots. Also could use some time to figure out when and where to help on defence. He's extremely active at times, but he overhelps in bad positions.

In the limited minutes he's played so far, it seems he thinks the best time to shoot is whenever the ball touches his hands. That won't fly in the DLeague.

This is why I love MU. I bet you that Bruno's entire year has been planned out and that Casey and MU knew the exact date he was being sent down at the beginning. Give him 3 months of quality NBA coaching, and develop his personal training regiment. Then send him down on the west coast swing when he has no chance of junk minutes. He will probably be there for at least a month.

Do they play d-league anywhere? Ballstreams?

The kid will finally get some burn. Glad to hear it and I wish him luck. He'll miss the "Bruno" chants at the end of blowouts though.

You would want to put up a shot too if those minutes were the only minutes you'd think you get all season. He's trigger happy but i dont think he's a selfish player by nature, he just wants to prove himself and is over doing it.
