#FibaYouthBball ICYMI: Nelly Junior Joseph is killing it in his first pro season overseas w/ SIG Strasbourg... The former New Mexico and Iona big man has earned the #BetclicElite MVP award for November maceoballer16.medium.com/nelly-junior... Just another one for the African King #CBBGlobal #PIT25

#CollegeHoops Michigan won the Players Era Festival in style, broke every record in the process, and tops KenPom, Bart Torvick and NET altogether... Still, the #1 spot in the AP-Top 25 will have to wait... Make of that what you wish... #GoBlue #B1GHoops #Wolverines apnews.com/article/ap-t...

#FIBAWCQualifiers Norchad Omier put on a show for Nicaragua despite two tough loses against USA this week: 23.0pts, 17.0rbs, 4.5ast, 1.5stl and 1.0blk while shooting 46% FG maceoballer16.medium.com/norchad-omie... ICYMI the Cleveland Charge big man went on a tear in the FIBA #AmeriCup

ICYMI: encouraging start in the #FIBAWCQualifiers for Spain w/ former CBB guys Alvaro Cardenas & Great Osobor making their official NT debut in style The PG+Big combo showed playmaking chops, shooting threat, rim running ways and some contagious energy in the road win over Denmark #LaFamilia

#CollegeHoops Texas A&M cooked Florida State w/ Euro newcomer Ruben Dominguez leading the charge & posting 21pts on 7-12 threes Statement win for #BuckyBall behind the best high-volume sharpshooter in the land: 49% 3P clip in 8APG for the 6'6 wing #GigEm #SECHoops #CBBGlobal #CBBInternationalFAs

#CollegeHoops I understand Mihailo Petrovic defensive concerns early in the season, but he needs minutes to get up to speed and Illinois need his passing out of ball screens... You play him first, then figure out how to help him in D #Illini #EveryDayGuys #B1GHoops #CBBGlobal #CBBInternationalFAs

ICYMI: #FIBAWCQualifiers are in full swing this weekend, and you cant miss Tennessee Vols cult-hero Zakai Zeigler making his debut for the Puerto Rico NT tonight The 5'9 floor general averages 10.1pts, 5.8ast, 2.0stl and 1.7rbs in his 1st pro season in France #FibaYouthBball #SeleccionPUR #GoVols

"These Wolverines are the first team — ever — to beat ranked teams by 30-plus points in back-to-back games. It had never been done in men's Division I history." Seems good.

Michigan absolutely obliterating the Zags inside-out w/ Lendeborg, Mara and Morez setting the tone early on offense On the other end, it's about size, switches & timely rotations so Gonzaga cant find easy looks in mid-court and score only off TOs Wolverines rolling on #GoBlue #B1GHoops #PlayersEra

#CollegeHoops Impressed by Ilias Kamardine start of the season at Ole Miss. The Rebels combo leads the team in scoring and passing w/ 15.8pts & 5.2ast after 5 games Have some clips of the 6'5 Frenchman shining as a playmaker w/ wiggle and vision #SECHoops #HottyToddy #CBBGlobal #CBBInternationalFAs

#CollegeHoops Mihailo Petrovic finally made his debut for Illinois after some hamstring woes w/ 11 minutes off the bench vs Alabama The former Mega Basket playmaker posted a total of 5ast, and also hit a pull up three. Exciting times in Champaign #Illini #B1GHoops #CBBGlobal #CBBInternationalFAs

#CollegeHoops Such a hard-fought win for Michigan over Wake Forest w/ a new talented frontline ready to take over from Vlad Goldin & Danny Wolf Special s/o to Aday Mara's show on both ends. Remember when he was on 13 min/game at UCLA last year? Yes, thats on Mick Cronin #GoBlue #B1GHoops #CBBGlobal

#CollegeHoops I know it's 2025 college ball, but St John's has changed its roster too much & lost the defensive mojo in the process. Can't see a Pitino team going gun-ho to beat Alabama guard play unless they get stops & run At least the Johnnies still have Zuby Ejiofor around #SJUBB #BigEastHoops
