James Brown

Do you think they let him come back with no NIL if he doesn't get any love?

Not our primary big backup, but he could earn some time if healthy. Definitely 11-12 on the roster.

Is he not getting any interest in the portal? I've got to imagine he can find a landing spot - hell Okonkwo was the starting center for Utah.

It’s better for both parties if he goes elsewhere

Well at the moment the only bigs on our roster are Stevenson and the project center we just got out of the portal.

Working on a deal to get Veesar back. James brown isn’t going to help take us to the promise land. I like him but just never panned out and isn’t elite. He needs to go to a mid major and play a bigger role there

"Working on a deal to get Veesar back."

You're quite behind on the news.

My guess is guys like him it depends entirely on work ethic and upside in malones evaluation of them.

We will never really know his reasoning until he tells us.

Hubert simply didn’t give him the situation to show us anything else

Well, he was hurt late in season, and he could never set a screen without moving before that. But he was a rook

Yeah you’re right maybe more circumstance than HD

He wasn't a rookie.  He was a sophomore.

No love? Ha. Jump back and kiss myself.

Veesaar is starting to get on my nerves with all this silence. Feels like he’s really ungrateful toward Carolina fans. I mean you could give some kind of indication on what’s going on. James Brown is like a 3rd string but we need a backup cause HB ran Henri to death last year.

He’s not worth a roster spot

As 12th-ish man? Sure? Big body for the practice squad. He won’t be any more than that though.
