NBA DL
Before I get into this the Red Claws wasn't even the most ridiculous name I found in the D-League. It's by far the Fort Wayne Red Ants.

Tiny Gallon, Maine Red Claws, 14.2 points, 50.4% FG, 7.6 rebounds, 1.18 rebounds, 3.48 turnovers, 29 games started, 30.1 minutes

Tommy Mason-Griffin, Sioux Falls Skyforce, 2.6 points, 11.6 minutes, 1.8 assists, 2.2 rebounds, 5 games, 11.6 minutes

Keith Clark, Texas Legends, 3.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, 12.3 minutes, 24 games.

Willie Warren 21 points, 5.3 rebounds, 7 assists, 0 starts, 6 games

Longar Longar 3 games, 2.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, no longer on the team after the first 3 games.

Was that necessary? I doubt he does. I'm married and we have two above decent incomes. I don't think he's making more than $50K a year in Turkey. I'm not going to disclose my financial status, it's not relevant. The league Wright plays in sucks.

The life of a borderline NBDL/Overseas guy is not a life I'd want. I know a guy down here where I'm at (Stanley Asumnu) who plays for the RGV Vipers...He hasn't played great in the NBDL, got a minor knee injury and is now off the roster. The Vipers still have him practicing with the team, but he knows his NBDL days are numbered. He could go overseas and make a little money, but that life isn't for everyone. I do know he's better than Wright though. No real point other than it's hard to make it to the NBA but is easy to make it to Turkey's second division.

Here's what google translate says:

ratiopharm Ulm's 20-year-old American takes Tommy Mason-Griffin under contract

The 1.80 meter guard Tommy Mason-Griffin will initially improve the training situation and is an option for next season. ratiopharm Ulm tests for the remaining ten main round matches of the 2010/11 season to 1.80 meters wide Americans Tommy Mason-Griffin. The 20-year-old guard who played in the D-League, according to Manager Dr. Thomas Stoll a "highly talented but still very young players."

During the current season, Mason-Griffin will give the current squad more depth and improving the training situation and compensate for any losses injury. Mason-Griffin on Wednesday, 2 On March in Ulm. For since by Walt Baxley (moved to Finland) and Chris Large (occupational career end) two guards during the season, the team of Mike Taylor left, had the ratiopharm Head Coach 's work to get an optimal training operation to continue. Without the cooperation partner BG Illertal-white horn player shortage would not have been bridged. Mason-Griffen Taylor is now a player available who has throughout his young career his potential already demonstrated on several occasions. So the Houston-born Guard was called after completing his high school career in the McDonald's All-American team. Afterwards he gave at the University of Oklahoma for a rookie in impressive numbers. 14.1 points and 5 assists per game and a three-rate were 42.4 percent for the excellent shooter for a year to book. Here it go two games with more than 30 and five with more than 20 points. "Tommy is a very talented offensive players," says Mike Taylor, the 102-pound powerhouse. But it will certainly take some time before Mason-Griffin is in competition shape and has internalized the comprehensive gaming systems. "But we have so-called stand-by professionals, as were indeed EJ Gallup and Romeo Travis, good experience," said Taylor. That has not worked out last summer for the Mason-Griffin NBA Draft - also because many experts accused him of his lack of size - does not disturb the Texans. "It annoys me not," said the point guard. "It motivates me more and reminds me that I not be content to continue working can and must." will appeal to a setting that Coach Taylor. Tommy Mason-Griffin Born: 29 September 1990 (Houston, Texas) Size: 1.80 meters Weight: 102 pounds stations: 2008/2009: James Madison High School: 21.9 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 6.7 ApS 2009/2010: University of Oklahoma: 14.1 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 5 ApS 2010-2011: Sioux Falls Skyforce (D-League)

Is there any way to see what players overseas make? I've always wondered how much they get paid. I know some leagues are better than others so I would assume the pay is higher.
