YES!!! get him on the 2-way ASAP!

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

He was a hell of a player for UF. He had some injury issues if I remember correctly that kept him out of being drafted. Seems like a decent pick up.

Why am I not shocked that someone I have blocked is a gator hater lol

This is awesome, I really hope Colin can stick around.
He's an underrated team player.

I got to see him play as a Laker vs the Austin Spurs last year.
He sprained his ankle before the half ended though, so I didn't get to see much.
But I was courtside in the first row behind the Lakers bench, so that was cool.

He's also a home grown Florida kid too.
And one more ex-Wolverine to add to the club.

I want to say he might have played 2019 with Franz.
I watched a bunch of the 2019 Wolverines games but Franz wasn't expected to be anything more than a role player back then, while Colin was more of a scorer and rebounder/star at the time.

Now I've gotta figure out how to watch the Osceola games from Texas.
I don't think my League Pass has those games and I don't have an ESPN subscription.
