Based his tweets I'm guessing he has had workouts with the Mavs and Rockets in the last few days. Love the pic with him and Dirk. It'd be great to see him get on a D league roster.

Well, if anything, he's proving that if you play here you WILL get your opportunities. He's a smart player. I think he'll make it eventually somewhere.

Would think he could have a nice career playing over in Europe.

If he makes a D League team aren't their salaries around $175K but not guaranteed?

You are thinking of the COMBINED team salaries.

I always thought that nic might have a chance to play in France or Spain. Don't see him as an NBA player and if you want to make a living playing basketball not in the NBA you have to go to Europe.

Good for him....but I agree I think he's a Europe guy, some make a good living over there. Just depends on family situations obviously.
