Around the League: 2023-24 Season

It's top 6 protected FWIW. I doubt he falls out of the top 6 anyway barring a major injury or a horrendous freshman season.

I'm confused. Does this mean the earliest he'll be eligible for the draft is 2025?

No question. Cam Thomas can have a Bradley Beal career with ease.

Both Beal and Flagg have denied this (probably just lying to diffuse the issue).

However, the rumor is that Flagg was busting Beal's ass during Tatum's basketball camp and Flagg was talking mad trash to Beal while giving him the business, so Beal got mad and had a tantrum.

@Stanford will like this story because **** Bradley Beal.

Cam Thomas is definitely my least favorite recurring bit on this board.

Not a bit. Just paying respect to untapped potential.

Actually Embiid at the 4 with Bamba or Reed at the 5.

Whatever it is, thats ok with me. I didnt even call him a Filipino in my OP.

My POV was he spent most of his basketball career in the Philippines playing for the country playing against International competition. And my OP is more about how he is a good fit with the Kings because he plays like Kings’ top players and in a Kings-like system.

He played for your country. Not comes from there. Filipinos/Filipinas love claiming everything remotely connected to their country. Not dissing, as many of my good friends are from there. Spent countless hours drinking fundador light and red horse and eating sisig, while listening to Andrew E songs for karaoke.

No worries. You definitely can talk basketball with us for days. That our only sport or hobby in here.

Heading to pasay next month for the basketball. Yeah it’s huge. Hobbies = basketball and karaoke.

That's funny, but there really are a lot of NBA logos that only real fans would know, and a lot of really vague ones. The league has also become much more regional after being more of a national game in the '80's and '90's.
