So sports illustrated mock draft has Liddell at pick 16 and Brahman at 30.

If that pans out, EJ Liddell made the big bucks by coming back another year. Compare what the #16 guy (i.e. Alperen Sengun) drafted in 2021 got to what an undrafted player like Duane Washington got on a "two way deal".

By signing a two-way deal, a player will split time between an NBA team and its G League affiliate and be on an NBA team's active list for no more than 50 games. This year, two-way players will earn a flat salary equal to half of the minimum player salary for a player with zero years of service. That amounts to $462,629.

Rookie scale contracts are guaranteed for the first two years, with team options on the third and fourth years.

Here’s the 2021 breakdown:

Player.................. 2021/22...... 2022/23..... 2023/24...... 2024/25........ Total

Alperen Sengun... $3,214,680... $3,375,360... $3,536,280... $5,424,654... $15,550,974

Third-year forward E.J. Liddell is 12 points shy of 1,000 for his career after weighing his NBA draft options during the summer.

“He’s had a phenomenal career,” Holtmann said. “Has to continue to grow as a player and do some things better to have the year I want him to have, that he wants to have. Beautiful kid. Beautiful family. He’s had an unbelievable career. He’ll move onto the NBA after this year. I’m happy for him. I’d love for him to get it in the first five minutes of the game.”

Very similar to his game vs Minny

24pts, 11 Rebs, 5 Asts, 1 Blk. He needs a lot more attention than he is gettng. The school or maybe an NIL advert to promote him for the Naismith. No player in the country means more to his team.

I'm going to post his stats after every game here to keep track of how good he finishes. Feel free to post if I haven't.
