Completely random, but they debated if Adama should’ve came back. Wilbon seemed disappointed he’s not getting a chance with the bulls.
Wouldve loved to have seen him come back. DC said he would come back regardless so with both those guys the repeat would be all but assured and the only question would be if they go undefeated.Completely random, but they debated if Adama should’ve came back.

They have a few seconds to talk about it. It's not an indepth conversationI realize they're just flapping their lips for any reason they can come up with, but they didn't think about the question from Sanogo's perspective at all, which is just... irritating.
You can’t assure the same chemistry, Johnson wouldn’t have this time to prove himself, and you’re also short a scholarship for current squad. You keeping Sanogo and not able to bring in Spencer? I’ll take him leaving for this team makeup 100/100 times.Wouldve loved to have seen him come back.

I'm happy they respected him enough to ask the question. He's not forgotten.I realize they're just flapping their lips for any reason they can come up with, but they didn't think about the question from Sanogo's perspective at all, which is just... irritating.
They can address it from any angle they want in those seconds. They chose to judge his decision based on something that couldn't have possibly been known to him at the time he chose to enter the draft. I get it, they just want to talk about it from the perspective they care about. I realize I'm just shouting at clouds.They have a few seconds to talk about it. It's not an indepth conversation

Would he have made the same decision if he was open to NIL funds. Maybe so, just wondering how much that impacted his decision.You have a young man who is crushing it in the G League and has an admirable work ethic and keeps out of trouble. He will have a chance somewhere in the next few years. Whether he is able to capitalize on it -- who knows. But he will earn a chance and folks will want to give it to him.

Kind of like irrefutable logic.Sanogo is averaging 20/11 in the G League making $500k a year. He landed really well
He was a 21 year old Final 4 MOP. Even if we repeated and he did it again, then he’d be a 22 year old Final 4 MOP. He’s a low post 6’9 C, staying wouldn’t do much for his draft stock
Absolutely the right decision to leave. Hope he’s celebrating a very happy birthday today!
Right. The sooner he left, the sooner he was able to get money to his family. I see him giving the NBA a try for a couple years and if it doesn't work; I see him scoring 20 points a game overseas for a decade.Kind of like irrefutable logic.
I thought 2 way contracts just paid like 510k regardless of where you are playing. Also 2nd rounders make like 1M so why would he get up to 2M. I'm not saying you are wrong, just that I haven't seen this breakdown anywhere.Sanogo had to leave college because he was ineligible to make NIL money at UConn due to stupid NCAA rules. As soon as he left he signed a deal with Sunoco for a million dollars (plus or minus).
The NBA portion of his two-way deal would be worth (about) 2 million dollars if he plays a certain number of games (which he hasn't). His G-league salary is reportly worth 50-100 thousand. He probably got some sort of bonus for his brief promotion to the NBA. He also gets per diem and other perks that don't amount to much.
Still his Sunoco deal is nothing to sense at and he wouldn't have it if he was still in school.
