Is that really Booker?
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Yeah, although the photo has some odd coloring and lighting, I assume to create contrast and make him look more ripped.

Saw this posted on RealGM for a different pic but I think it applies here as well

Couldn’t have signed with St. Petersburg? Sigh.

Man, they play in some rinky-dink arenas over there. St. Petersburg’s home arena seats 6381. Moscow’s seats 5000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VTB_United_League

Well, I suppose now there's a roster spot for Alan Williams, right?

I think Peters will thrive overseas. He just seems to have the perfect game for playing over there.

Peters was a 2-way contract guy, so wasn't taking a roster spot. We do have a 2-way spot available now.

They have high schools in AZ that hold more.

Got this sent to my email today from the Suns. Are they planning on trading Jackson? :shock:

I think having negative VORP disqualifies you from being on posters.

;) I think it's because it is for an open house. They want to show off the new guys plus face of the franchise, Booker.

I've toured around Europe for soccer matches, but I think I just might have to do it for hoops sometime soon. I'd love to check out a club like CSKA Moscow if only I didn't have to go to Russia.

Maybe they are emphasizing the new players, because they aren't associated with all of the losing from last season.
