Final roster spot, not a two way contract

Not the final roster spot for ATL; they have the 15th roster spot open and Chaundee Brown on one of their 2-way contracts.

This is awesome for TMart, and UConn nation!

The final SL Hawks game is @ 3pm on NBA TV
 
Congrats to Tyrese! Like I said in the Summer League thread he is showing more consistently the ability to drive to the hoops in a various ways. We only saw glimpses this while at UCONN and few games Depaul away in his first year come to mind. I guess he is stop deferring to others and just playing. It would been nice to see TMart in our 4 out offense we are going to implement this year. I'm sure he would of shined in that kind of offense.

Time to rosterbate… NBA teams usually have 9-10 man rotations in regular season.

Starters essentially locked:
Murray
Young
Hunter
Collins
Capela

6th man locked:
Bogdanovich

7-8:
Okongwu (6’9 forward)
AJ Griffin (6’6 G/F)

9-10 are totally up for grabs but may end up going to another PG like Aaron Holiday (who stinks) and potentially another big like Kaminaky (also stinks). Hawks have Aaron’s older bro Justin Holiday who I suspect will take all remaining mins that we want to go to Martin but could be wrong. Martin could also work his way ahead of Griffin even though Griffin was a 1st rounder.
 
I’m sure Atlanta knows what kind of character they’re getting, one of those guys who can hang on longer than people expect. Hope he works his way into the rotation.

Wonder if the Hawks make a move for Durant - Collins/Griffin/Okongwu/Johnson and some picks could maybe get it done.

Fantastic news. A real tribute to both his athletic talents and his work ethic. Several people said he’d be a guy with long NBA career and I can see it, even if I don’t think he will be a star. The league needs guys like him.

After the Gobert trade Hawks might need to give up 10 firsts.
 
Talk about a transfer that worked out in bunches! Shows you that when you work really hard & you receive great guidance & support from a first class coach & basketball program anything is possible. Looking forward to watching him in the league- hopefully his hard work will continue to pay dividends.
 
The man played himself from a relative nobody (for NBA draft standards), into the draft combine, into the second round, and now onto a team.

No doubt he’ll work his way into real NBA minutes one day. The guy works hard and deserves everything he gets.

Congrats Tyrese!

Wow, so happy for Tyrese. Hard work pays off. An example for Hurley to hold up for other players.

No coincidences. It's the difference maker. The best part is his reward becomes teaching by example to his former teammates and incoming kids. Very, very inspiring. Wonder if he will continue "the look"
at the next level. Tough, tough competitor.

Recruits are going to be sick of hearing about Rese! From low major offers out of high school to an NBA contract. Hurley and Cox were so pumped to get him, thought he was a steal way back in September of 2017. Not every under the radar recruit works out like this, but it is so gratifying when it all comes together.

Happy for Rese. Happy for the program for the dividends it provides. Some tournament success and recruiting will become easier for our coaches.
 
Happy for Tyrese. Showed up every night and gave it his all. Nice trip from URI thru UConn to the NBA. He has to be really proud of this accomplishment. As a lot of you said and I agree with, his game may be better suited to the NBA than college.
 
Not to be greedy
But I wish he signed with one of these teams who give rookies the 4 year 7-8 mm
But glad he still got something very good— and he earned it w great play
 
I predict rookie of the year and at least 5 all star appearances. Yeah i know, but so what? Hes my guy.
