Yea D league all about showcasing specific skills to be an NBA role player of end of bench guy ...no NBA team is looking for somebody to become a star or leading scorer they the G leagueIs this really any different than college basketball?
There are guys that lead the nation in scoring, Wooden award winners, all-americans, that wash out or don't make it either. You're not really supposed to evaluate talent based on personal accolades. There are quite a few guys who get called up that aren't necessarily burning it up in the D-League but fit whatever role they get called up for.
If the salaries stay they way they are the G league and 2nd round picks are gonna be very important to teams smart enough to utilize the strategy or filling out the team with low salary/developmental guys after they get their big money stars ...teams like the heat and grizzlies have been doing this but they just ain’t execute the step of finding real stars to go with their G league guys they developing
