James Bouknight Declares for NBA Draft

[Umami Zen]

I got the impression that @Abe1 knows Bouk from outside of UConn and @Hurleyman216 is part of the UConn basketball program.

Guessing @Abe and Bouk might have played some hoop together over the years.

 

[KingAG]

Abe is Bouknight. Think about it...

Good luck Abe erhhh Bouk I mean... career too short as a fan but go get it done. Future is bright.

 

[Scoe]

Oh no. Did James litter?

I wish him all the best and I really look forward to seeing him at the next level. He's an exciting player and so much fun to watch. Let's hope he doesn't fall in the draft and go to the knicks.

Fixed it for ya, lol.

 

[OkaForPrez]

he'll be remembered as the first guy who got the ball rolling again

Stay in touch with who?

For folks with whom you have a personal relationship, you wish them good luck and ask them to stay in touch through a message board that they've never and will never visit, right?

 

[BugsyCT]

Good luck Bouk! Always a Husky!

Honest?

 

[Palatine]

Shocking. Hope he kills it in the league.

Stay in touch with who?

I think Bouk is still waiting for an apology from Chief, right @formerlurker?

 

[Vuce]

So happy for him. Watched him play in high school up here in MA and was excited when he committed to UConn. Was so awesome watching him play in person for a year and hope he gets it done in the NBA. Thank you James for helping get UConn back on the road to relevancy! Good luck!

Hi Andre,

Enjoyed seeing you at Ted's. Let me know when you'll be back in Storrs again next time.

Honestly just shows how much he really cared about this program. Hopefully he can be a testament to people looking to come in after him.

Smart decision good luck to bouk in the NBA can’t wait to watch his develop so rapidly

For what? He said he wanted to come back but was convinced by others not to. I agree with his gut instincts on this. Perhaps, he knows himself best and what he needs to be successful in his long term career.
Having made the decision now, as I said in another post, I wish him the best. Before that final decision, I was trying to give the best advice I could. What I thought was in his long term interest. Some posters and even advisers forget about the insurance that the school could buy for him to cover the injury possibility, that some raised, as the reason he should go.

He should be remembered as the kid who came to campus, stole a car, ran from police, and got off with a light hand slap. As far as basketball; really didn't accomplish much for the TEAM. Don't let the Gampel doors.....

You got lost on your way to the womens board. _____ off.

 

[SellersElbow]

Other than the fact it would’ve been great to make a March run, this played out like it should have. I’m excited to watch a young UConn shooting guard make waves in the Association again!

Lol ok boomer

 

[Deadrody]

I'm honestly not going to predict anything, but it will certainly be interesting to see how he does.

 

[gsmooth]

Good luck in the NBA, James. Thanks for your part in bring UConn back to relevancy 😃
