Nate Huffman who played in Israel for the last 2 years and tested the NBA market this summer told an Israeli reporter today that currently there are only 2 more options left for him to try : Golden State and Houston since those are the teams that showed some interest in him. he didn't add any more details. Dan Lederman
He will probably make it into a camp if he really wanted to. From what I hear, he is a good front court man.

Pacers had the chance to sign him and it was mildly rumored that they were going to, but decided to take Carlos Rogers, instead. Here is a past TSN Pacer article on it. "One of them is 7-0 Nate Huffman, a 1997 Central Michigan graduate who has starred over the past two seasons in Israel. Huffman has gained about 40 pounds since he left college, and has established himself as one of the top center prospects in Europe. Huffman, 26, averaged 16.7 points and 8 rebounds while playing for the Tel Aviv team last season. He played in Spain in '98 and in the CBA before that. Huffman has the offensive skills to play in the NBA, but many question his defensive ability. He's become a heroic figure in Israel, however, and has drawn interest from several NBA teams" http://www.sportingnews.com/nba/teams/pacers/20010823.html
Captain ignorance. i understand your anger, however you must know that Israel is a tiny country on the mediteranian sea. one of its borders is with Egypt which is part of AFRICA. Afganastan is in Asia on the fringes of the Indian sub-contonent. heck, it used to be part of india back in colonial times. its approximately 1,600 miles to the east of Israel. if your gonna post angry thoughts please wait 15 minutes first. its never good to do anything when angry, drunk, or horny, because you wil never know what you end up doing till its too late peace guys and try to smile
