He does not possess a strong enough handle to play point guard and he is too short to play shooting guard. The NBA isn't in his future. Of course, my player assessments have been proven wrong countless times in the past.

I think besides size, the other major thing that hold him back from getting a look compared to someone like Dre is that he is a ball dominant scorer. He was at his best not as a spot up shooter, but as a guy who could dribble around a bit and get open with a pump fake or a step back. For a role player at the end of the bench, NBA teams want a guy who can come into a game cold and make a quick catch and release three the first time his hands touch the ball, not a particular strength of Seth's.

Seth performed well at both the Orlando and Vegas Summer Leagues and turned heads with a 26 point effort one night for Phoenix in Vegas. I think he showed well enough to get a training camp invite. We'll see if he can stick somewhere, not easy. He's done the work, now he needs a good fit and a little luck.

Someone needs to make a thread where people can find this sort of information.

It seems Seth's probability of getting meaningful time in Orlando is pretty good as they maneuvered to have his D-league rights shifted to their affiliated team in Erie.

awhom111 was making a joke since he painstakingly keeps track and informs (http://forums.dukebasketballreport.com/forums/showthread.php?34254-Dukies-Hooping-Overseas-2014-2015-Edition) us all of the overseas happenings. ;)

Wanted to spork you for this but for some reason that cute little happy/sad face is not showing up on your post. So, virtual sporks.

Wait, I thought ALL DBR sporks were virtual. Have people been getting physical sporks? Like in the mail?

No, you have to go to KFC to get physical sporks.

There is a time limit on post comments. I believe it is two weeks. That "cute little happy/sad face" otherwise known as a comments icon is not showing up because awhom111's post is older than two weeks.
