When you look at the NBA Development League Draft pool this year, you really do see an unprecedented amount of talent. Of course, the talent pool seems to get deeper every year, so that's to be expected.
Look who the Vipers got.
The Vipers basketball staff is going to have a lot of tough decisions over the next few weeks. It'll probably help to have two exhibition games instead of one this year.
Shout out to Marquis Blakely from the University of Vermont, selected #12 overall by the Bakersfield Jam. Even though Blakely's clutch play was a contributing factor in Boston University's continuing NCAA Tournament drought, it's always good to see an America East player get a shot.
About Me
- The Doctor Professor
- Rio Grande Valley, Texas, United States
- In the spirit of Rhode Island, Jonah Goldberg is neither a doctor, nor a professor, but he is the statistical wizard of RGV (despite the occasional math breakdown... he did attend COM at Boston University... you know, the college of OPTIONAL math... actually, it stands for College of Communication). Jonah is the home color commentator and road play-by-play announcer for Vipers broadcasts. He also wears a whole host of other hats for the organization, including Director of Communications. The nickname actually comes from the Rockets. Play-by-Play broadcaster Craig Ackerman used that nickname for his partner, Adam Wexler, when they were working together, so it only makes sense that their NBA Development League counterparts would do the same.
