He's nothing but training camp fodder. Can't see him making the team.

I'd love to see him succeed in the Spurs system. If not them, then Philly's. Both are really good at getting the most out of their guards. I can see him being Gary Neal 2.0
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

$500,000 for four months of work? Not a bad gig if you can get it.

I don't think his deal was guaranteed so he'll only be paid for the time that he was under contract or he might get nothing based on how his contract was structured.

"Jimmer thinks everybody is stupid," said an NBA assistant who worked with Fredette. "He thinks everybody needs to come and just turn over their offense and let him shoot it anytime he wants. That's not how the league works."

Sad to read that his ego was as much to blame as his lack of height and speed.

Well now it kinda makes sense why he hasn't found a home yet. If he'd just accept his role he could be an extremely useful role player.
