Any word on Josh?
Is the Summer League still going on? And do those guys get paid to play?

RE: Any word on Josh?
It depends. First round pick rookies and current players that are under contract get paid. Some of the undrafted and 2nd round picks get sign to partially guaranteed contracts where they go to summer league and get a shot at training camp. If they get cut from the team they get to keep the money. Other that the players like Josh get travel, room paid and per diem. Summer league is about exposure for undrafted or 2nd round picks and development for 1st round picks and current young nba players.

Thanks for the info. Have you heard anything about Josh's chances of hooking up with someone?
