Dorsey made D-League Showcase First Team

Is the D-League that bad? This guy can't get any PT in the NBA but he's putting up Dwight Howard numbers in the D-League.

 

Well the D-League is for players who can't get any PT in the NBA.

 

The article may be a little confusing. It's an award for a 2 game performance, not the season.
The NBDL showcase is where both teams play road games in Boise, Idaho.

The Vipers played 1 game each against Albuquerque and Bakersfield Jam.
The numbers are skewed due to a 1 game explosion against the Bakersfield Jam.

I took at look at the NBDL standings and it shows that the Bakersfield Jam has the 2nd worst record in the league. They have only 3 wins for the whole season. They are the New Jersey Nets of the NBDL. :grin:

Don't read too much into Dorsey's numbers against the 2nd worst team in the NBDL.

 

Joey Dorsey = a career D-leaguer. Well actually stuck in between. Not good enough for the big leagues but "too good" in the developmental leagues.

 

Sounds like a decent insurance policy if we have an injury in the front court.

 

Doesn't really mean much, only he might get a call up.

 

If only he knew how to control his fouls.
