Hopefully catches on with someone who can give him minutes

Looks like Shawn Long was also released by the 76'ers today.

Shawn Long released

Yep. I thought he was playing decently this preseason. Should be someone who wants to give him a chance.

Dang. That would have excellent if he could have stuck after going undrafted.

So who do the current Belt teams have in the league now? I know Elfrid Payton is doing really well in Orlando...is there anyone else?

Courtney Lee is still in the league. Obviously WKU is no longer in the league, but Courtney Lee was.

I don't know how those contracts work, but they signed Shawn Long to a 2 year deal. I thought it was a long shot for him there as they were already three deep at center with high draft picks that I knew they wouldn't cut. If they trade one of them (likely) they may bring him back up. If not, I'd expect him to go to their developmental league team right now. I'm kind of hoping they release him totally as he'd actually be a better fit with other teams.

What happened to Tony Mitchell? He was supposed to be an NBA "superstar" with a long NBA career. Looks like he's currently playing in Israel.

I can't think of a meaningful minute he played in an NBA game.

Or His Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior years honestly.

Brutal for it to happen to RJ on his birthday. But the news out there says he will get picked up.

The positive is that as a first round pick he had a guaranteed contract.

RJ has been picked up by the Bulls.
