Good news for Auggie. Playing in the ACB will do wonders for his game and confidence.

Umm, no. But it is good to see that Augustine found another job.

Best of luck to him. Hope he puts up some #'s there.

The feeling was Augustine could have a long career as a 12th man which is not a bad thing.

His time here though was over.

I wish him nothing but the best.

Yea, he's gonna suit up for the GranCanaria all-karaoke team :wink:

jokes aside, good second chance for Auggie who's gonna play (hopefully) in one of Europe's top tier leagues. He'll get experience and refine his game, then he may get back to the NBA in a couple years' time.
