Jack Purchase 3 yr deal 1 yr DP 2 Yr contact ?

is nbltv doing the games

The video of Mitchell has a number of players that must be training with them- are they part of the China tour?

I saw:
Jack Purchase
Cadarian Raines- Knox Import
Geremy Mckay- ex NCAA and AFL recruit
Seb Lamonato
Liam Thomas

There were a few others I didn't recognise (other than contracted players).

Good point Makur - should be Magic.

I've not heard anything about the NBL team this year, and I assumed it wasn't happening as we have the World Cup itself.

Also not sure why you would have Boone in the team?
In the past it has quasi-national team, and focussed more on younger players.

why chose Phoenix as the team name ? should be called the Magics. South East Melbourne Magics.

Jimma was heading to juco, if he gets contract may change mind

what is happening with that NBL Australia team coached by Trevor Gleeson going to Asia

Rumour is Adnam is in the all nbl team, Boone as well. Will be a good squad but you would think no one who is a chance for Australian team, again only guessing.

When is it?

I hope someone picks him up as 11 player I love watch 7Foots play

Thomas is to old for a DP, 25 before start next season.

Really hope noone does a Deangelo and nicks anything.
Would be a cheap trip probably paid by Chinese teams but hopefully security and safety is organised, pretty crazy over there.

what is happening with that NBL Australia team coached by Trevor Gleeson going to Asia

has Liam Thomas got a changes to get a DP spot

Confirmed the following NBL1 players with Simon Mitchell on Saturday:

Dane Pineau (Melbourne)
Dan Trist (Frankston)
Liam Thomas (Diamond Valley)
Deng Acuoth (Ballarat)
James Hunter (Knox)

Then there is the other signed players assuming they are suiting up:

Ben Madgen
Adam Gibson
Kyle Adnam
Tai Wesley
Kendall Stephens
Mitch Creek (not sure he is playing or not)

Jack purchase DP player or just playing in china

Some Vets I’m told also

Jimma Dau
Jack Purchase

It does not look so good for the Aussies, with the lone exception being David Andersen. Apparently, the people that give the Euroleague MVP awards don't think too much of the Australian players in Euroleague, other than David Andersen.

They noted how the D-League MVP came in at 145th on the list, which I guess should pretty much put the debate about Euroleague or D-League to rest. Here is the list, copied and pasted from ISH.
