    Good read on what the fringe players have to go through trying to make it in this league.

    Good read. Helps explain a lot of the questions I've had about what's going on contract-wise around this time of year.

    It is pretty interesting, good read. Maybe a different, but sort of related topic, I was wondering the other day while watching a bit of a D-League game from months ago, what it must be like to be Seth Curry or Mychel Thompson. I didn't even know Mychel Thompson existed until I saw this replayed game vs the Warriors and D-Fenders. Their brothers are stars in the league and just won a title, that's gotta be a little weird when you're in the same line of work, but almost on the complete other end of this field.
