Jayhawks in the pros
-
@rcjhdraft Interesting, but we want Johnny still!
-
Joel starting for Team USA tonight! On FS1 right now
-
It’s super cool he’s choosing to play since it’s his first opportunity but sheesh. He’s still not right
-
-
Looking at scores on Summer League with the Raptors 40 points down vs the Heat. Woof! Ochai with 2 points and don’t see Grady on the roster tonight. I see that Grady is out with an ankle sprain.
-
Just stumbled upon this. Did not know:
Where is Darrell Arthur now? Denver Nuggets Darrell is now a part of the Denver Nuggets Front Office. Arthur is the first cousin of fellow basketball player Quinton Ross.
-
Saw the highlight of Braun throwing down the poster dunk on Rudy Gobert last night. Unfortunately, it lead to a technical and took the momentum away with the Nuggs ultimately losing after being up by 10 with 4 minutes to go in the 4th quarter. Who would have thought Braun would be starting in the NBA when he played at KU?
It is a great thing to see!
-
How’s this for synchronicity:
Ochai and Gradey each had 22 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.

Gradey has been lighting it up for the Raptors. Two 30 pt games before that…
-
Gradey is averaging 21 points a game this season so far, after 8.5 last year. He’s really stepped it up in year 2.
-
Och has been doing pretty good too! Saw an oop from Grady.
-
Dick has taken over my fantasy league. His owner changed team name to “Can’t get enough Dick” and I changed mine to “Not Just Any Dick Grade A Dick”
Yes, we are middle aged men.
-
@approxinfinity Uh hmmm, budddy- - Say what ? lmao
-
Hahaha. Dude if we cant laugh what have we got? Happy day before election day, when half the country will think we have entered the post apocalypse
-
@approxinfinity Lol - -you mean we haven’t ? - - -Dammit - - I hate it when that happens lol
-
I don’t get as excited about Jayhawks in the pros to be honest, but we’ve got some production currently. Grady averaging 20, Oubre 16, Ochai 16, Jalen um, 8 (?), Joel is becoming an enigma, finally playing Tuesday. Wiggins his usual 15 points or so. Doke, Svi just hanging on in the league. Devonte might be done in the league. Grimes seen his production go down a lot since his trade away from the Knicks. Braun is a media star of sorts getting lots of twitter noise for his ‘stuff’ and averaging 16 a game.
5 guys averaging at least 14 and that should go up to 6 when Joel starts playing.
-
@wissox Great rundown. I just wish Josh Jackson hadn’t thrown it all away. Anyone remember when we were so optimistic that his car-keying episode was an aberration?
-
Is Josh playing anywhere right now?
-
@Woodrow I can’t find him listed anywhere. Last thing I see is him being waived by the Stockton Kings https://stockton.gleague.nba.com/news/stockton-kings-acquire-jericole-hellems-2

That sucks. He was a good baller. Didn’t even make a second contract. Legal problems? Seems like maybe he got in some trouble.
-
Josh was part of a recruiting era of Bill Selfs that seemed to find talented with baggage type guys. Seemingly he’s turned the corner from that
-
Anger issues and drugs
-
How does Cooper flag stack up against Wemby, Lebron, Embiid? Is the hype just Duke bluster?

He is Legit

@BShark If I recall correctly: Arrested in 2023 for alleged sexual assault involving someone who left a party, got called back to his place, fell asleep, woke up naked…etc. Dunno how it turned out. No updates I could find.
-
Interestingly today I listened to the Jayhawker podcast on IHeart and Bill Self mentioned Josh Jackson. Just gushed about all of his talent.
I failed to mention in my player update that so far Johnny Furphy and I are tied in total points scored in NBA…0. He does have two rebounds in 3 games. Not sure who we wouldn’t currently have if Johnny stayed in college but I wish he had.
-
Technically, now ALL Jayhawks are in the Pros, thanks to NIL
-
@nuleafjhawk you mean they are now all OFFICIALLY pro
-
@nuleafjhawk How should I retitle the thread?
-
@wissox Jayhawks in the NBA ???
-
Payhawks?
-
My suggestion for a new title:
An Exhaustive Examination of Former University of Kansas Jayhawks and Their Dynamic Journeys Within the Complex, High-Stakes Environment of Professional Basketball in the NBA: A Longitudinal Analysis of Talent Development, Adaptation, and Influence Across Seasons
-
@benshawks08 Hmm. Not descriptive enough.
-
Dick had 32 last night.
-
Dick’s on fire!
-
@approxinfinity I could say something BUT I won’t cause some here would blow a cork and take it all out of the way it was meant.- - just my sick sense of humor. Anyway you can figure it out lol- - just playin
-
@wissox He was really strokin it, huh?
-
@nuleafjhawk Must’ve been! I didn’t watch, just perusing box scores.
-
Imagine AI taking over this thread…… Dick is stroking, now Dick is on fire and burning
-
@kjayhawks - -There are ways to take care of that lol, I mean I wouldn’t know personally but just sayin lol
