I saw a tweet about someone’s podcast (might have been Prince’s) that mentioned Hutch had signed a professional contract. Didn’t listen to it, so don’t know with whom he signed.

Hopefully Hutch's injuries are behind him and he has a nice career. Funny how these things work out.

I remember Scott Meents was stuck on bench behind Efrem Winters and George Montgomery but had nice 2 years in NBA


On another note I saw Holmgren is out for season with foot injury. You can see the talent but it appears the durability issues are real. I hope it will not be another Bill Walton, Sam Bowie, Greg Odom situation.

It seems like Holmgren's was a pretty freak injury not a stress one. A lot of people would get hurt if all 250 pounds of Lebron landed on their foot which is what seems like happened.

One of my all time favorite Illini along with Eddie Johnson, Bruce Douglas, Kenny Battle, Frank Williams and Roger Powell

Can anyone summarize the interview for those of us that had to work :(? Love to hear his thoughts on the upcoming Bulls season - and of course any Illini talk...

Any news who/where Kofi is working out these days? When do teams start training camp invites? I'd assume he would get an invite from the Jazz, but I can't find anything.

Tacko Fall just signed a contract to play in China so that’s one less guy to worry about.

Looks like Giorgi's G League rights were traded to the College Park Skyhawks (Atlanta Hawks affiliate), so I'd assume that's where he'll be this season though I think he could choose to play abroad if he wanted.

Malcolm got a cup of coffee with the Hawks last year after he moved from Birmingham and later to Bulls.

How did we miss out on this guy, I thought we had a PR pipeline.

i guess next we will see Belo doing an impression of Pistol Pete at St Johns,

With this Mitchell trade in Utah, I hope Kofi gets to go and destroy training camp. There would be no reason he wouldn't be able to play this season
