I am not a big fan of “Top __” lists. That said, it is sometimes fun to observe others’ subjective rankings of members in a profession. Kevin Baumer of Business Insider recently created his list of The 12 Most Powerful Agents In The NBA. As for his rankings (with top 3 salaried clients listed): Arn […]

We have stressed this point many times on SportsAgentBlog.com – Don’t limit yourself to only pursuing a career in sports agency; there are not many good jobs out there in the profession, and there are a ridiculous number of people willing to do almost anything to break in. That said, don’t lose your dream of […]
Already one great decision and one that leaves me scratching my head. Sure, I have become a big fan of Dan Fegan of Legardere Unlimited as of late, but he deserves my acclaim, especially when he gets his clients deals that look like straight-up steals. I didn’t even discuss Drew Gooden in my post that […]
It’s July 1st. Basketball junkies have been waiting for this day for quite some time. Their favorite teams can start talking to LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh…for the past year, we have been doing all the talking for those teams.

Priority Sports and ASM Sports each with 6 clients selected. First Round John Wall (Washington Wizards) – Dan Fegan (Lagardère) – Washington D.C. is getting used […]
Now that the deadline has passed for early entries who were testing the waters to either remain in the draft or go back to school, I like to go through the early entry list and look for agent names that surprise me near the top of the list. I already wrote a post about my […]
Since the end of this past college basketball season, the biggest draft question did not focus on whether someone would keep his name in the draft pool. Instead, it was on who the future #1 overall pick, John Wall, would select as his representation leading up to the draft. That person will pick up the […]
The deadline for underclassmen to pull their names out of the NBA Draft is one week from yesterday (June 15). Those that have committed to an agent no longer have an option of returning to school if they decide that they do not want to enter the draft pool. This year’s draft class has seen […]
