    Anyone that attended game, pls tell me who this guy is and who on the ROX guarded him in the LA/HOU game. He shot 14-16 from the field including 5-5 from 3pt territory!

    While we evaluate how great our guys are doing in the summer, we should know something about the competition.

    I'm wondering if this was a one game wonder or whether he has put up numbers in other games this summer? Is he a foreign player? etc. Any info appreciated.

    I hope this isn't an example of DL playing SG defense or TMo's defense either...that would be scary!

    He was on UNC in the early/mid nineties. Decent shooter, but no NBA potential except as a bench warmer.

    If I'm not mistaken, he played for UNC and should have been on their 93 Nat'l Championship team. He was a nice player at UNC, reminded me of Del Negro. I thought he was playing overseas, last I heard.

    TMo/Live - Thanks! So this was a case of a vet summer league guy getting hot and taking advantage of our youth. Whew!
