Denzel Bowles tearing up the PBA
Last night, while flipping channels, I came across an NBA D-League game. While watching the game, which looked like it was being played at lifetime fitness, I got to wondering what Denzel Bowles was up to.

Turns out he is back in the Phillipine Basketball Association averaging 33 ppg and 12 rebounds per game. He has his team, the Purefoods Hotshots in the semifinals of the playoffs (tied 1-1 in a best of 5 series). Below is a partial recap of his play in the second game of the series.

I sent a note to have the remaining games broadcast on Madizone. I'll post a follow up if they decide to broadcast them.

BOWLES GOT HIS BUCKETS
As great as TNT played, however, they still couldn’t really put the clamps on Denzel Bowles, who recorded another great game. Bowles has scored 30 or more points in all but one of his contests so far, and he was dominant again in Game 2, putting up 35 markers on 54.5% FG shooting. He’ll need to be more aggressive in getting those rebounds, but it’s clear that nobody on TNT can really stop him from getting his buckets.

Conference stats: 33.7ppg, 12.6rpg, 3.8apg, 2.8bpg, 52.4 FG%

Semis stats: 42.0ppg, 9.0rpg, 3.0apg, 2.5bpg, 60.3 FG%

RE: Denzel Bowles tearing up the PBA
I have no idea but I found this story from January 2014 when he was going from PBA to CBA.

http://www.interaksyon.com/interaktv/san...ioners-cup
“I’m really gonna miss Denzel,” said Cone, who added that Bowles is getting a mega-bucks contract in China much higher than a PBA team could offer. “He loves the Philippines, but money is money.”

Bleacher Report story from October 2013. - http://bleacherreport.com/articles/18219...nba-talent
"This season, the CBA has its biggest and most talented American roster across the board, for one because the league added an 18th team, the Sichuan Blue Whales. In addition to Marbury, who recently signed a three-year deal with the Beijing Ducks, the top imports include Earl Barron, Bobby Brown, Donte Greene, Hamed Haddadi, Ivan Johnson, Darius Johnson-Odom, Johan Petro, Shavlik Randolph, Josh Selby, Sebastian Telfair (Marbury's cousin), Von Wafer, Delonte West and Shelden Williams.

They're all earning between high six figures and $2 million net this season, according to Curtin and Haylett. For the other lesser-known players, the minimum pay is around $350,000 net."

A bit of research last night told me that some recent draftee by the PBA wanted to earn 20k USD per month. Don't know if that is 12 months or just the length of the season (couple months?). I don't know. It may be that DB made a couple hundred K in China and them came over to the PBA for another 60-80K or so.

Just a guess though.

Didn't someone say that JMU would be a better team without Denzel?
