Makes sense the way he's been performing lately in the D league.

 

[MelroseHawkins]

He just may stick. Good for him.

30K for 10 days work. That ain't bad.

Dallas has had some success with tall guys who can hit jump shots.

10 day deals in the NBA are insane. Its the main reason young players stay in the D-league instead of going overseas. Once they have 1 year of experience under their belts the 10 day contracts become $50k or more.

I think Micheal Beasley's latest 10 day contract paid him around $60k...and he signed two of them already this year.

It's all about confidence with JU. If he feels like he can play in that league and he belongs, he has a decent chance of sticking. This is how the NBADL is suppose to work. Good luck to JU, hope he can play 10 or 12 years and make a little bit of cash.

Because Don Nelson was willing to take a shot on a European big that could shoot. This was before the whole idea of a "stretch 4". Just think if Dirk had been a bust and it was leaning that way the first 2 years.......good thing he figured it out.

Is the rule that if you get 2 consecutive 10 day contracts that the team either has to sign you to a deal or release you?

Yes

Not sure they're jump shots but pretty effective set shots that's for sure.

Jared hasn't played much since getting the call. Didn't play at all last night. He hasn't made a bucket. Hope he gets some PT soon.
Needs to prove himself on the big stage to get a contract.
