    He was added to their training camp roster. Lets hope he is good enough to make the real team. Good luck Ronald. You da man.

    I think it was #11 by that CBA team. Even if he doesn't catch on with the Pistons, it'll be a good experience for him. He seems like a good guy who will work hard and give it his best shot. If he develops a decent outside shot, watch out.

    Dupree is doing better from what I am hearing. Obviously LSU basketball isn't one of the "powers" like Arizona or Duke, but they DID beat Arizona and Dupree produced solidly during his career at LSU. I think he can be a solid contributer to an NBA team if given a chance to further develop.

    He is doing pretty well so far in preseason..Ron Grizzard was also picked up by Detroit at the same time and is already gone. I about fainted when I saw that Stanley Roberts was on the Toronto roster but he hasn't played a preseason game. Jabari Smith is getting some good playing time at Sacramento too.. He will probably make the team. Stromile is starting at center for now in Memphis. CT3 is waiting for the developmental league draft that will occur in a few weeks.

    Still looking for Duayne Scales name to pop up again.

    Scales would be about 43 or 44 by now so I don't think we'll see him wheezing up and down a basketball court anytime soon. What about Mahmood Abdul Rauf? the player formerly known as Chris Jackson. He would still be young enough to play. He's younger than Stanley.
