KD really liked this guy
What’s the reason he couldn’t get signed to another nba team? Listened to a podcast he did w his national team teammates and said he waited and waited so long, he eventually gave up and signed to a B league team in Japan.
3 point specialist stopped making threes
David Bertans
Joe Harris
I loved this dude on fantasy
I thought he chose not to stay in the NBA after he married a Japanese TV announcer and preferred starting a family back in Japan?
He played pretty badly in his last season IIRC

Dude has a great smile. Wish he was still in the league
I always loved his response when he got posterized by Ant and he said “When you get dunked on like that, you often become the laughing stock/people make fun of you. But, even though I did become famous for something not great, not going for the block was never an option for me. The only regret I have is that I fouled him. I’d try to block it if I had to do it over again. A lot of players nowadays know that when you get dunked on like that, it goes viral on the internet, so they try to avoid those situations. But I don’t think I would deserve any play time if I didn’t try to block that dunk and I instead let him score. If I had 100 opportunities to block a dunk and I could block just one of those 100, I will continue to try to block them.”
yuta watanabe on my wrist
noticed the replay slowed down right before the shot clock buzzer makes it way more intense
