Both he and Blackmon Jr. went to the camp I believe.This may be old news, but I haven't seen it posted. Just pulled it from the SL roster.
he had very good stats with his last teamGood luck to JU. Boston would be a great place to make it--great coach and an up-and-coming team. I haven't seen him play since he graduated, but it sure seemed like he had a lot of attractive skills. If he could become a reliable 3-point shooter with his overall game, I don't know why he could catch on as a stretch 4/long 3.
The G league has slowly been gaining traction and has begun to increase its pay and benefits. Free online streaming services like Twitch are helping bring in more viewers and in return revenue for those G league players. All but like 3 NBA teams now have their own affiliate. While obviously overseas would pay much more, the gap is starting to close.
Kudos for JU sticking it out and fighting for his dream. He's had a small taste with the Mavericks and it only takes one team to like you to give you a chance. Hopefully he plays more than a handful of minutes this summer to showcase his abilities.
Opportunity for earning potential is a small window. If I’m him I’m saying screw the NBA and and making tax free European money while I can.Interesting calculus for a player.
Keep plugging away in the G league and going to team camps? For how long?
Go to Europe for bigger pay now; but that means most likely saying goodbye to NBA chances.
Not an easy decision.

This must have changed then. My point my still remains, however.Tax free? You must report all income earned abroad to IRS and it will be taxed. If you try to open an account in a foreign bank, they have you fill out a form that gets sent to IRS if you show American passport and you have to show passport to open an account. So, no, it is not tax free.

This always seemed to be the most likely scenario. JU had some outstanding performances as a Hawk. The NBA was just a tier beyond his reach. I suspect the same of Jok. Both great Hawks.JU to Russia to play for Zenit St. Petersburg.

The NBA is rarified air. Some really, really good D-1 college players don't make it there.
Thanks for the posting. Yeah, a lot of us figured this. Hope he does well.JU to Russia to play for Zenit St. Petersburg.

In an article today announcing the deal with Zenit, the writer said to expect JU back at summer league again.Interesting calculus for a player.

Sure 60 guys will get 2 way contracts, but teams move drop those frequently as well. Callups do happen, but again that is a small percentage of the league.
