Jayhawks in the pros
-
We can update how our guys are doing here. We have quite a few populating rosters. Marcus Garrett is listed on the roster of the Heat. They have a Morris brother too. Joel in Philly, Wigs in San Fran, Devonte in Charlotte joined now by Kelly Oubre. DDot hoping to stick in my backyard here in Chicago, and his running mate, the behemoth Doke is hoping for the same in Utah. Marcus still in LaLa Land. BMac, one of my favs from his one year in town is now in Portland. Really glad for him as his extreme poverty growing up has been alleviated. Someone pointed out the Lebron hasn’t won a title without a Jayhawk on the roster so the Lakers shouldn’t have just cut Frank Mason. Josh Jackson seems to have staying power in the league and we’re all pulling for him to succeed in Detroit. Svi is taking his sveet stroke north to Canada. Lets keep checking those box scores and updating here as the season starts up this week!

I don’t follow the NBA at all, and therefore lose out on how the guys are performing. Heck most of the time I don’t even know who they’re playing for.
Thanks for making this thread! I look forward to reading future post.
-
Wayne Selden made the opening roster for the Knicks
-
Devonte is playing with Zion now
-
Gotta admit, I’ve just been a casual NBA fan ever since the Sonics left town. I do enjoy following Jayhawks in the league though.
(And of course, the TNT post game show with Chuck, Kenny & Shaq. Usually more interesting than the games.)
-
@BeddieKU23 You know I was thinking about him and thought, naw, shouldn’t waste time looking him up. I’d love to see him do well. Thanks for the add!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Forgot about that. Thanks

Wayne making a roster popped up on my Facebook from a Jayhawk group I follow. I had no idea he was with the Knicks tbh but good to see him still trying to make it in the NBA. I had kind of thought after his last go-round that he might have to go elsewhere to play.
Still disappointing that Frank hasn’t found a good home. That injury in Orlando last year was the epitome of bad timing/bad luck. I know guards his size have a low % of getting stability in the league but having seen how dominant he was at times in the G-League I still want to see him be successful. Devonte got his chance and capitalized and it seems like Frank is still chasing that same chance
-
Wigs with 12 points, 7 boards and 1 assist.
-
Wayne Selden played a year in ISRAEL I read. Bet that was nothing he had ever experienced before.
-
Noticed Quentin Grimes on the Knicks roster as well

Been there myself for work and can attest to it being some experience.
-
Oubre 14 points but ugly shooting percent. A few boards and assists
Josh Jackson 7, 4, 2 I watched this game and he had some good moments in one stretch including a really nice block.
In a head to head matchup Joel had 22, 5, 6 against Devonte who had a nice shooting night making 4 of 6 threes with 5 assists and 18 points total. Missing Zion (surprise surprise) so maybe assist opps will increase.
Selden didn’t play in NY, same for Doke, the only bench guy that didn’t play for Utah.
I think that about covers it for our guys last night.
-
Spectacular 133 point first half out west last night. Steph had 25 after 1 quarter making people calculate the possibility of breaking our Wilt’s unbreakable record. He ended up with ‘only’ 45 which was 18 more than M. Morris and Wigs scored combined.
Marcus Garrett is officially an in the books NBA player, earning 5 scoreless minutes although he did contribute 2 assists which would be like 18.3 assists if he had played the full 48 minutes. Pretty cool a guy with his unique skill set is now an NBA player.
-
Graham with 21/6/6 for the Pelicans
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Yeah he was fun to watch.
-
Busy night on the NBA scene. Sri had a nice effort scoring 8 with 3 boards. Oubre had a real nice night with 25 points off the bench. Wayne Seldes scored zero in 2 minutes. Joel Embiid off to a slowish start scoring 19 against the Nets. Doke riding the pines.
-
Oubre having a strong game tonight. 19 points, 8 RBs, 5-9 3’s. Svi is shooting well in limited minutes with 5 points. Not gonna stay up late to see how M. Morris does in LA or BMAC in Portland.
-
Another good game for Devonte. 21/7/3 (+/-) +23 and a W
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich he’s legit!
-
Been a few busy days so I’ve missed some action. Joel Embiid tonight 30 points, 18 boards. Josh Jackson was much less productive scoring 7. Wayne Selden didn’t play against the Bulls who lost for the first time. Neither did Grimes. Devonte is averaging 18 points and 5 assists so far. Great to see.
-
Selden and Grimes have been warming the Knicks bench, hope that they can some PT.
-
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich That’s awesome! I sometimes think we lose sight of how athletic these guys are.
-
Devonte being Devonte , sure made a little boy happy. Devonte gave the boy his Pelican game shoes WOW what a great guy, always loved the guy seemed like he was always smiling ear to ear. Will never forget his Senior speech so emotional.
Gave the boy his shoes. The kid tweeted or something saying thank you so much and that how he was now going to have to get his dad to buy Devonte’s Jersey so he could wear it to every game lol. - -The boy had a regular shirt and it had Graham name on the back - -taking it Devonte must be his hero lol - -Gotta love it
-
Ben Mac not getting any PT in Portland
-
-
I noticed Svi got a start tonight and played pretty well with 15 points, 5 boards and 5 dimes.
-
Dtae vs wiggs on espn now
-
First pts wiggs and dtae
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks, was going to check to see who’s playing tonight.
-
I hope that NOL can turn it atound.
Ben Mac has not played a single minute.
I do not see Selden and Garrett on their team rosters, perhaps moved to GL.
Also, do not see Marcus on LAC roster, is he injured?
-
@AsadZ Haven’t heard about Marcus.
Oubre had an explosion of points tonight scoring 37! That’s more than his last 4 games combined!
Wiggins hasn’t cracked more than 21 in a game until tonight where he too is at 33 with a couple of minutes left.
-
@wissox saw his dunk over towns!
️
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I’ll have to look it up
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That was something
-
At the bulls and Knicks. Quentin Grimes just came in.
-
No sighting of Selden tho
-
BenMac still on the bench, no PT
-
@AsadZ No I was too far to see the bench to see if Selden was there.
-
Read where Wiggins went of for 32 last night
-
Yep Wiggs is good for 4-5 big games a year. He’s consistent in that regard
-
-
@BeddieKU23 I think he’s already met that.
-
Having a good season so far! Warriors are legit
-
Yes, Best record in NBA so far. Curry is on fire.
-
Sorry haven’t updated stats and stuff. Our guys generally are not performing that well. Will try to list everyone this weekend and their general stats
-
DT had a game winning deep trey last night.
Oubre had a nice game, scored 27 points.
Dot is back with Bulls, he played a few mins but no stats.
Svi has been decent off the bench for Raptors.
BenMac and Selden still not getting any PT.
-
@AsadZ Thanks, noticed the Oubre outbreak. Made 7 3’s!
-
Devonte nailed a game winner in Utah tonight for the Pelicans.
