Pistons likely to waive Kemba

[UCFan1513]

Maybe the worst day ever for UConn in the NBA?

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Was always expected

 

[aceboon]

everyone knew he wasn't in their plans the day he was traded there. Hornets need to bring him back as a culture guy for their lockerroom

 

[bigknight3]

Actually a good thing and has taken longer than planned. Kemba says he feels good (we'll see), so now he can choose a new team is there's a market for him.

 

[Castlevania]

Come back to Charlotte, Kemba!!!

 

[UconnU]

Come back to Charlotte, Kemba!!!

This is exactly what the Panthers did last year when they were tanking with Cam Newton.

I think it’s possible, even likely, to sell tickets and because the organization needs leaderships/character BAD. Lamelo Ball cant right the ship.

 

[WrenchFan69]

Hornets should pick up Kemba just to set Bouknight straight

Uconn needs to put some players in the NBA asap. Could have 0 shortly

Andre is sticking around for a while

Andre is sticking around for a while

I hope but I don’t know. He’s been playing on one year deals the last few years with low salaries. I think the deal with Chicago is 2 years though

I know the rosters are bigger, but crazy fo think we have had more guys in the NFL the past decade than in the NBA

 

[LIuconn]

Danny here we go. Times have changed, but he can be the new age college Carpenter

 

[ToolzieFan]

A few of you have suggested Charlotte. Does that seem like an organization anyone would really want to be a part of right now? I don’t know how much he has left in his knees. I hope he can find a better situation than Charlotte, though.

 

[methodology]

Kemba not going to Charlotte. He’ll find a team that he can come off bench and that has a chance at a ring. He doesn’t have many years left and will pick a /situation that gives him the best chance to compete for a championship

 

[Chin Diesel]

If Kemba never plays another minute he ends up with:

741 games played and 696 starts
14,414 points and a 19.5 ppg average
3919 assists
921 steals

4x All-star

$160,818,723.00 career earnings


He's got bum knees and doesn't have the speed or explosiveness to compensate for being a small guard. He can tip his cap and hang it up knowing he had a very good NBA career.

Tyrese will be in the NBA this year as well.

Bouk, Drummond, Gay and Martin

 

[UconnU]

Bouk, Drummond, Gay and Martin

Not a single starter in the league. I remember a time when only Kentucky and Duke had more players in the league. What was it like 14 players a decade ago?

 

[Kenny11]

Bouk could be out of the league with one more screw up.

Gay is one of the oldest players in the league (it’s amazing how long he’s played)

It’s amazing that Martin is even on a roster and I hope he sticks but who knows

Drummond has been playing for almost league minimum in recent years and although a great rebounder, doesn’t play like a modern big

Try not being so negative

It's amazing that Martin is even on a roster? Huh?

 

[Kenny11]

Yes. He’s done a great job. Before 2022 he was never projected as an nba prospect by anyone

 

[Psolo12]

You realize he got starter minutes in preseason and is going to be in the Hawks rotation right? It's not like he barely scratched by onto the roster and will be the 13th man.
