Also, looks like he’ll get more than his G League salary in those 10 days so a nice payday. $46K is league minimum for a 10-day contract I think that's for a veteran. I was looking and saw 32k for a rookie. Either way, it's more than he was making for the entire G league season.

Either way, it's more than he was making for the entire G league season. $46,582 for rookies this year. It jumps to about $75k for someone with 1 year under their belt, and $84,034 for 2 or more years in the league.

Pretty cool there are 3 former A10 players on the Hawks roster now: DeAndre Bembry, Jaylen Adams and now BJ. Cornering the market. Preparing for the rebrand: "Atlant ic 10 Hawks"

Didn't get to tune in, did BJ get any time? Starting triple OT - 147-147. No time yet. Only a couple guys fouled out and no one else close. But someone’s gotta need a breather.

My excuse of "not being able to tune in" just went out the window, but I think that shipped has sailed at this point. So would that still count as garbage time?!

He’s playing right now against the Knicks. Just hit a 3[/quote 5 points on 2-3 shooting. On the floor with Bembry and Jaylen Adams. Three A-10 players on the floor together at the same time. Very cool.

Hell of a debut for BJ. Can’t say I’ve followed an nba game tracker at all this season until today. 19 mins and no missed shots with a couple boards, proud of you BJ
