Semi, Sterling and Ben's NBA thread

[LA_Mustang]

Semi had 16 tonight going 4-of-7 from 3.

Ben had 6 points and 4 boards tonight for the Pacers.

Great night for Semi. More minutes than anyone else and a better showing than all the youngsters on the Sixers. There was alot if young talent on that floor.

Congrats to Semi for scoring his first NBA points tonight. Hit a three. They played the Bucks but Sterling didn’t get in the game. Still, it is impressive Sterling made the 15 man given the fact they are projected top 5 in the east. J Kidd will give him a chance.

Ben currently MIA?

Didn’t make Pacers 15 man roster and I don’t see him on the Ft Wayne Mad Ant roster. What up with Ben?

[LA_Mustang]

The NBA now gives each team two “two-way contracts” which basically gives teams 17 players rather than 15. Those two players spend a majority of the time in the D League but they can spend up to 45 days with the NBA team as needed. Ben has one of these contracts with Indiana.

I hope you're right about Ben, but according to the official site, Alex Poythress and Edmond Summer are Indiana's two 2-way players...

I haven't seen anything official, but considering he was at SMU's practice the other day, I fear he might be unemployed at the moment. Would love confirmation otherwise.

WIkipedia says Mad Ants, so that has to be true, right? Everything is always true on Wikipedia.

Ben got waived. He doesn't have a 2-way contract. Wish he had got one. Last I saw he was going to play for the Mad Antz, but not sure if that plan changed. I don't think the G-league starts for another week and half or so not to weird he was back around practice.

Anybody have updates on Nic and Jordan Tolbert? Have their seasons started?

[LA_Mustang]

I thought I read where he was signed to a two-way contract but I guess the Pacers decided to go in a different direction. My bad.

Yes, Nic being a bad mofo as usual. Playing in the French league.

Sterling scored his first NBA points last night hitting a three in the Bucks loss to the Cavs.
