Great to see him getting a chance and still sticking to his game. If he has a nice showing, maybe the Raptors or another NBA team will ask him to come to camp.

Is ESPN showing Summer League games again this summer?
Or are they foregoing that for endless reruns of WSOP, Tilt, The Junction Boys and 3?
(I won't bring up the other awful, awful movie they made, based on a book by a certain hated sportswriter. I am trying to wipe that one from my memory, as though it never existed).

Hey he made it in the NBDL anything is possible. We are not saying hes gonna get alot of minutes, just saying maybe theres a possibility for him at the end of some bench?

i love KB, but let's be honest - he is not a pro.. you can say that about a lot of guys that ARE in the league... I'd love for him to get a few years under his belt, pocket that money, and move on to the next phase of his life...

Good luck to Bras. His chances are slim, but it leads me to think of a fine line from a great movie:
"So you're saying there's a chance!"

If The Point Guard Formerly Known As Mateen Cleaves can hold a spot on a bench for years, Bras can certainly make a roster.

Mateen Cleaves played a key role (if not the most important role) on a national championship team. Comparing him to Braswell isn't exactly fair. I know the talent around him at MSU was better, but let's be honest. Still, I wish Braswell luck.

My point is simply that if any player can sit at the end of a bench in a suit for 95% of his team's season, then anybody can make a roster and do that. Hell, they can pay me half the league minimum to be a cheerleader/taunter.
Imagine playing the Heat and just yappin' at Shaq all day about "Kazaam" and "Steel" and how the SAT's are culturally biased.

Best of luck to my old floor mate from Harbin - Go Bras! I actually ran into him at Dewey Beach last summer (about the last place I thought I'd see him), and he seemed really at peace and determined to make it playing hoops. I'm glad to see our all-time steals and assists leader getting a look from a pro team.

They might as well put him on an NBA roster...
He runs a 4.29 40...
