Re: Summer League

[Michael Ryan]

Coach Bettis and I didn't talk any other details. Late June is the
usual startup time.

I don't believe any current NBA players are allowed to play since the
league is not sanctioned by the NBA and hasn't ever been.  (I'm
testing my memory here but...) I believe when Corie and Nick came back
and played in the summer after their rookie year the rule either
didn't exist or they weren't "busted".

Individual players decide to play, or not play, all the way up to the
last minute. Veteran SL attendees know that permanent rosters aren't
completed until a week or two into the 'season' and even then never
seem to be final. Its the nature of the league.

The Slats Window Shade company always have the most Bearcat players on
their squad. Usually two returning players and all the recruits.
