Demarcus Cousins destroying the opponents as an import in Puerto Rico.
How much does this league pay? So many ex-NBA players playing as import.
Cousins, Brandon Knight, Hassan Whiteside, RHJ, Lance Stephenson and Archie Goodwin.
Imports can earn from $ 25,000 up to $ 35,000 per month.
A purely Spurs fan take , after watching Wembanyama it makes me think how will this all fit , what are pieces to make this all work? I'm now re thinking that the Spurs don't actually need a traditional PG , as Wembanyama ans Sochan's archetype is so unique and none traditional. It litterarally is position less basketball in steroids, I mean you a 7'4 player bringing up the ball and dishing.
Although different positions it reminds me of MJ Bulls , where yes MJ a guard was the best low post scorer , Pippen and Kucok forwards facilitators and PG Kerr , shooters.
the Spurs will be doing it of course from different positions, BTW believe it or not Sochan may be a better low post scorer than Wembanyama. It's weird . But i trust Pop wil figure this out.
Read that the Spurs listed him solely as a F and not F/C. I wonder how they're going to stagger his and Sochan's minutes. Can they play together?
Not such a bad deal considering the proximity of PR to the mainland US.

Just in: The NBA Board of Governors has approved two new gameplay changes for the 2023-24 season, per sources:
- In-game penalty for flops resulting in technical foul free throw
- A second coach’s challenge awarded if first challenge is successful
Were Dennis Rodman and Bill Laimbeer the first floppers in the NBA?? Flopping was made famous by Vlade Diva, Manu Ginobili and Raja Bell.
I remember Eric Bischoff (of WCW) instructing Malone and Rodman to have a tussle/heated scramble as part of marketing the PPV match between DDP/Malone vs Rodman/Hollywood Hulk Hogan. Damn Im old.
ousmane's shot coming along pretty well this summer league. he has been displaying a pretty good all around game too. could he become a rotation player next season? okc's bizarro frontline featuring chet, poku, and ousmane is pretty interesting.
