I didn't see a thread for this; if there was one then I apologize. Very cool honor for him. Hopefully he's in the NBA next year.
Ugh! Nader traded to the Thunder

Good for him. The kids has worked his tail off to get to this point. I expect to see him in the Association next season.
Great to see our former players shining, and the side benefit for us is that it improves our profile with recruits that are looking to get to the next level. A ton of former Cyclones are playing pro ball right now at various levels, with more to come (Monte should get drafted, and Deonte and Naz are playing well at Portsmouth).
I think Thomas will get a serious look with his size and shooting ability. He has that work hard attitude and is always tuned in. I think he can play spot minutes and stay in the league a few years.
damn that is one impressive highlight reel. Those are some violent dunks toward the end.
I don't think top level
recruits have their sights set on playing in the NBADL or Europe. It's nice though seeing former players continue with their basketball careers though.
The bone spurs are definitely still bothering him. Even if they weren't I don't know that he would make it. He might try and do something like Nader did this year but very small chance he makes it next year.
So very happy for him. Coach Prohm truly embraced Duley. Bet he is thrilled too.
I was thinking something similar to this. But he must be happy with his decision to transfer from Northern Illinois where his career most likely would have ended after college.
I don't know if there is a team right now set up better for success over the next 10 years than the Celtics. They have a perfect mix of vets in their primes (IT4, Hayward, and Horford) and young talent (Tatum, Brown, Nader, and Smart).
