And sometimes they don't draft them at all but turn out like KNunn on opening night in Miami with 24 points. Or OTOH, spend $50 million and draft #11 and get Meyers with 0 points.

I'm proud of his time here and how he course corrected his life and for his future successes. He mentioned how he wants to be an NBA all star in a recent article...he just may reach that. He's on a good track so far and Miami loves him.
All that said....I'll take that Nunn Heat jersey

Nunn improved leaps and bounds after leaving. Groce had many problems, one was player development.

Thanks for the link! Glad to see him doing well.
He has improved a great deal over when he was with us...development can be seen in almost each area there.

So if you are a player seeking development an on the fence between Oakland and Akron (where JG is)...probably go with Oakland.

Miami signed him the last day of the season last year. Great job. He is a hard worker. Good for him.

I have been following him too. He was always one of the favorites of mine for the Orange and Blue. Meyers Leonard is also with Miami now.

He would have made a huge difference for the Illini had he not gotten in trouble & stayed with the team. I talked to him last year when he played in Dallas & he was such a nice guy.

Interesting that Nunn snd Meyers Leonard are both starting for the Heat tonight!

Nunn with 28 points on Thursday night against the Hawks. Meyers Leonard also started and had 16 points and 8 rebounds. They both lit up the Hawks on three-pointers.
