Grizzlies Sign Cam Spencer To A Guaranteed Contract

[auror]

In other breaking news, Nick Timberlake and his Portuguese team have agreed on a new contract that will pay him 3 cans of soup per game.

On the other hand, he probably made more at Kansas in his one year than his current British team's team-wide salary cap (400k pounds).

Spencer is wild. Just insnae competitiveness and compulsion. He's gonna be something in the league. Terrific bench player.

He's gonna be a star. Not your dominant all star- 40 pt/game guy, but someone that bball fans are gonna wanna see. He's very entertaining. He doesn't give 2 ***ts

This sums up my feelings

This Cam Spencer story is like fine wine, it keeps getting better w age. Kudos to Cam! This is awesome news.

Soon enough fans on other teams will be saying I fn hate Cam Spencer.

The right attitude can mean everything. Him and Tyrese Martin are great examples of if you are a hard worker, coachable, and a team player, teams will give you a chance even if you don’t have the god given gifts. Crazy that Cam might end up playing more NBA games than Bouknight

He definitely has unbelievable god given gifts. Hand-eye coordination second to none. Other than maybe his brother.

Interesting, Towson and Loyola Maryland are only 5 miles apart!

NBA teams need guys that can deliver when put in a spot. Kid is fearless and wants the ball. Really happy for him!

Cam Spencer gets a new 2 year guaranteed $4 1/2 contract with Memphis.

 

[Palatine]

Wow! They didn't play him all that much last year but this says they do value him. Great news for the dog.

 

[Umami Zen]

Livin' the dream. Keep grindin' Cam. You got this!

I swear, you put Cam's brain into an elite NBA body, a MVP-level player right there.

You’d end up with MJ.

Am thrilled for Cam with this news! He worked hard, and he is now reaping the benefits of his hard work! He is my all-time Husky favorite!

 

[CL82]

I mostly think he’s the kind of guy who makes it anywhere, anyhow but imagine if his last year had been in purgatory at Rutgers? Hard to find a more perfect and mutually beneficial match than Cam and that UConn roster and staff.

He and Coach Hurley are cut from the same cloth. I loved Cam's intensity. He was just a blast to watch play.

Kansas obviously got ripped off, considering his total lack of production that year.

That is like the definition of coopting. Just bc Pike is their coach he gets to give Rutgers credit for all 100% UConn players who went pro? Even my daughter who goes to Rutgers is giving this the Mutombo finger wag.

But the Lakester still has that sweet ride!

Yes, it's amazing how much a tall mediocre player can make in Europe, if he cannot make it into the League.

That graphic was from when Karl Hobbs was an assistant at Rutgers so they were including guys he recruited/coached at UConn. still silly tho

Cam is an example of the transfer portal benefitting the player by creating opportunities on a big stage. Not sure it will ever happen but if he gets 20-24 min a game for a 15 game stretch I can see him becoming a Nemhard / Braun in that once you understand the subtleties and value of his game you better recognize his value. I know everyone looks good playing off a Giannis or Joker but it would be a great fit ( as would Alex)
