Would love to see Royce around that talent, but I think Ejim, Babb, and DG are all more proven and important.
The point guard on Dustin Hogue's team in Italy is . . . Aaron Craft!
P.S. Others in the Italy league include Tyrus McGee and Jiri Hubalek.

Article from Bleacher Report on Royce mentioned Lucious playing in the same Canadian league this year
Saying Royce isn't proven is a complicated statement. Similar to most things with him.
We Reached out to Royce but things didn't work out for us to get him on the squad. We apologize to the disappointed fans, but we are super happy with the team we assembled for our first year ever in the TBT!
Some of the people we reached out to we obviously didn't get to commit, and some had other commitments already. Our communication with Craig seemed to break down over the last couple of weeks, and as of now he is unfortunately not with us. Like most ISU teams in the past, we are dominate at guard but we feel as though the way the tournament plays we have a great squad to take a run at the title this summer. We added Chris Commons, who is a TBT Vet, to bolster our big spot which we are very excited about
Make us proud. Don't lose to any team with squwaks on it.
Do they have any guys that would even be eligible for The Tournament teams? I thought those squads were all littered with surefire pros!
With all the fan hype on this board about TBT this team is kind of a disappointment imo. I mean they had to get a non ISU guy to complete the roster. I'm still excited but not like I was a few months ago.
I agree. Missing just couple guys that could have really made the team good.
It's probably just not worth the risk if guys are making good money overseas. Or maybe a few guys will try to land on summer league teams.
I'll still try to watch as many games as I can. Will be fun to see these guys again.
I think this is the biggest problem in trying to land the Melvin and Royce type guys that would make the biggest impact. They can't commit to playing in the Tournament because they need to stay available for the NBA summer league.
Same here, I'll still follow it and everything, but not nearly as excited.
Adding the non-ISU guy really soured it for me.
