Michael Carter-Williams will be a first round selection in the 2013 NBA Draft. In fact, it is very likely that he is selected with a team’s lottery pick. The sophomore point guard from Syracuse is listed somewhere between 6’5 and 6’6, which gives him a good amount of length and height for his position. But […]
Florida Gators forward Erik Murphy just finished up his senior season in Gainesville, Florida. He had a very solid and consistent collegiate career, although it is certain that he hopes scouts forget about his horrid game against Michigan in the 2013 NCAA Tournament. In that game, he took a total of 11 shots in that […]
Earlier this year, the NCAA banned three AAU teams from playing in NCAA-certified summer basketball events based on an NCAA finding that basketball agent Andy Miller of ASM Sports “implored” AAU team administrators to recruit future draft picks for his agency. Another AAU team found to have ties to Andy Miller was the SEBL Elite All-stars (17U and 15U), but that club […]
I hope everyone enjoyed their Fourth of July celebrations. I am moving to a new apartment next week, leaving downtown Miami (across from the American Airlines Arena) and getting a spot in Brickell, near my office. Here are a couple of articles I published for Forbes.com this week: 1) NFL Concussion Litigation Sideshow: The Battle […]
The NCAA has banned four AAU teams [New England Playaz (17U and 16U), Worldwide Renegades (17U, 16U and 15U), Florida Rams (17U and 16U) and SEBL Elite All-stars] from playing in NCAA-certified summer basketball events. The ban is a result of an NCAA finding that those teams had ties with basketball agent Andy Miller of ASM Sports. Specifically, […]
It seems as though every few days information is leaked regarding a draft-eligible University of Kentucky player linking up with an agent. First, it was Leon Rose of Creative Artists Agency signing Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. That was followed with word that Terrance Jones will sign with Arn Tellem of Wasserman Media Group. The latest available information is that Kentucky point guard Marquis […]
Detroit Pistons forward Jason Maxiell has changed agents. He was formerly represented by KMG Sports Management, but recently made the switch to Andy Miller of ASM Sports. Maxiell was originally drafted by the Pistons in the first round (#26 overall) in 2005. He played his college ball at Cincinnati. As of writing this post, KMG […]
Isaiah Thomas was the final pick of the 2011 NBA Draft, selected by the Sacramento Kings. The 5’9 Thomas played his college ball at Washington prior to entering the NBA. Originally, Thomas was represented by Byron Irvin and Dan Fegan of Lagardere Unlimited. However, he recently parted ways from those agents and is now represented by Andy Miller of ASM Sports. […]
On September 16, 2011, I wrote that Jamal Crawford was on to the next one after he officially terminated Aaron Goodwin of Goodwin Sports Management as his representative. Crawford had not given any indication as to who would become his next agent of record. According to the NY Daily News, Crawford has finally made a decision, opting to sign with […]
Last week, Caron Butler, Ben Gordon, Anthony Tolliver, and Derrick Williams filed a Class Action Complaint against the NBA and its member teams in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. At roughly the same time, another class of NBA players filed a similar lawsuit in the Northern District of California. The California lawsuit has since been dismissed […]
