They are few and far between and about to get fewer:

Gary Clark has been averaging a career high in minutes at 19/game for Orlando, but unfortunately is having a very rough year shooting the ball. He's currently at 26.2% from the field.

Quote:You may know that former UC standout Gary Clark was just traded from the Orlando Magic to the Denver Nuggets. With Lance “Born Ready” Stephenson last seen in China, Clark is the only Bearcat left in the NBA, while Xavier has only Edmond Sumner (Indiana Pacers) and Naji Marshall (New Orleans Pelicans).

But did you know that as you read this Friday, UC’s Sean Kilpatrick is leading Herbalife Gran Canaria in Game 2 of a best-of-three series quarterfinal against the Boulogne Metropolitans 92 in the EuroCup? He had 17 points in 21 minutes in Game 1, FYI.

Meanwhile, UC’s Troy Caupain was named “Man of the Match” this week for his efforts in the Basketball Bundesliga. He plays for Ratiopharm Ulm, in the Medieval city of Ulm, on the Danube River in Germany.

UC’s Octavius Ellis starts at center for Olympiacos BC in Piraeus (2011 pop. 163,688), the fifth-largest city in Greece. And last Sunday, Bearcat Coreontae DeBerry had 12 points and 8 rebounds as the center for Vitória SC in Guimarães, Portugal. DeBerry previously played in Thailand, Canada and Germany.


So, while Bearcats Jarron Cumberland (Raptors 905), Jacob Evans (Santa Cruz Warriors) and Trevon Scott (Salt Lake City Stars) and Musketeers Kaiser Gates (Long Island Nets) and Trevon Bluiett (Salt Lake City Stars) all toil in the NBA’s murky G League waters to keep their hoop dreams alive, there are hundreds of U.S. basketball players in professional leagues all over the world. Do what you love. Earn a living. See the world. As a traveler and lifelong learner, I think that’s kinda cool.
