Long-form story on Jerome Randle
There was talk of it but I think it's officially only a 1 year deal.


Imagine at least one Randle calibre import per team.I don't think you have to do much imagining.
Randle
Cotton
Ware
Clarke
Dillard
Trice
Craig
Lisch (now naturalised) or Blake if he had been better
Trice not too far off the pace. Brisbane will no doubt try to improve on Beal, otherwise Craig is entertaining. Sydney showed their intentions with Blake and Powell, and you'd expect them to give it another crack next season.
There were a fair few 'role player or below' level imports, but definitely some great ones too.

Quality article written by Olgun, unlike most of the trash journalists churning out boring and basic half-arsed NBL articles.

Great recruiting by Joey. Unlike most of the other NBL coaches who are flogs at it.

there's no doubt that Randle has found all the love you could want here in australia


It'll be interesting to see if he gets any interest after this season with all the scouts that have been milling around. If he wants to stay in Adelaide though, I'd want to try to make that happen for sure. Worthwhile investment on and off the court.

Thanks for the link OP. Good insight into his past and his dream of making it.
He'll be 30 this year so a 3 year contract is a no brainer. He'll still be tearing up the NBL at 33. I'm wondering how he feels of his chances in the NBA after Yogi Ferrell got a 2 year deal with the Mavs. Randle has always put up ok numbers during the summer leagues.


I'd give him a 3 year deal...he's a proven star in this League and worth a lot more than just wins.



I heard Jerome wants a three year deal with Adelaide. It's pretty rare to give an import a long term deal. Is it worth it?


the game on TV tonight has shown how bad Ballinger is on d. Non existent so often
