Last week, The Big Lead learned that the NCAA opened an investigation into UNC-Chapel Hill guard PJ Hairston. Specifically, an apparent relationship between Hairston and basketball agent Rodney Blackstock is under question. The Big Lead included a GIF of Blackstock saluting Hairston at a basketball game. Not quite sure what that proves other than the […]
The following article is a guest contribution by Benjamin Haynes, Esq. Haynes is a former Division 1 Basketball Player at Oral Roberts University and currently practices law in the State of Florida. The 2013 NBA draft has been discussed at length for an extended period of time. However, these discussions have not been talks of optimism and […]
On June 13 I was tweeted news that University of Kentucky center Nerlens Noel signed with basketball agent Andy Miller of ASM Sports. Quickly thereafter I confirmed the tweet and learned that Noel had made his decision only one hour prior to my receipt of the information. Probably #1 NBA draft pick Nerlens Noel signs with agent […]

That is why it should not be a surprise that the long-time successful basketball agent has become the agent of record for former Georgetown forward Otto Porter. Porter was a consensus first team All-American and earned Big Easy Player of the Year in 2013. Among his current […]

After all, Hardaway Jr.’s father was represented by the agent throughout his successful career in the NBA. Hardaway Jr. declared for the NBA Draft, as predicted, but he ended up going a […]
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 […]
Basketball players who have declared for the 2013 NBA Draft have until tomorrow to withdraw their names and return to their respective schools should they determine that it is not yet the right time for them to join the professional ranks. Complying with the NCAA Early Entry Withdrawal Deadline will be enough for those aforementioned […]
The Final Four portion of the 2013 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament is right around the corner, which means that in only a few days, all college basketball players who wish to make the jump to the professional ranks will be able to do so without jeopardizing their ability to contribute to their respective teams in […]
