Bolomboy is back Forward Joel Bolomboy had an action-packed week, last week: Signed and then waived by the Bucks on Sunday, clearing NBA waivers and signing back with the NBA G League mid-week, then dominating  at the G League Showcase for the Herd. The 2016 second-round pick of the Utah Jazz, who had spent most of the season on a Two-Way contract splitting time with the Bucks and the Herd, picked up right where he left off: putting up huge numbers. Bolomboy scored 24 points on and cleaned the glass with 18 rebounds(!) against the Texas Legends on Wednesday, then scored 27 points with eight rebounds Saturday against the Austin Spurs. Over the two games, Bolomboy averaged 25.5 points and 13.0 rebounds per game, and shot 83.3% from the floor and 87.5% from the free throw line. For his outstanding play during the event, Bolomboy was named to the All-NBA G League Showcase First Team . Cliff Alexander brings the thunder! Forward Cliff Alexander played well i...

Munford signs Two-Way contract with Bucks Wisconsin Herd star Xavier Munford signed a Two-Way contract with the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. Munford, a 6'3" guard who played his college ball at the University of Rhode Island, currently ranks 4th in the NBA G League in scoring (24.1 points per game) and 2nd in 3-point percentage (47.6%). "Professor X" has been a human highlight-reel for the Herd literally since Day One (he hit the game-winning three in the franchise's first game), and filled up the stat sheet on a nightly basis, he's definitely earned this opportunity. If the Bucks hadn't signed him, he surely would have garnered interest from other teams. Munford has shown a knack for scoring and making plays all season for the Herd, and I see him doing the same for the Bucks. Job well done by Milwaukee.

As reported by Adam Johnson of 2 Ways & 10 Days , Wisconsin Herd star James Young will sign a Two-Way contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 6'7" guard currently ranks 9th in the NBA G League in scoring at 22.3 points per game in 20 games played with the Herd. The sharp-shooting Young, a 1st-round pick (17th overall) of the Boston Celtics in 2014, has displayed a well-rounded offensive game and the ability to fill it up on any given night, topping 40+ points in back-to-back games in November. Here are some highlights from James Young's brief yet terrific career with the Herd: Young scores 40 against the Red Claws In his fourth appearance of the season, Young exploded for 40 points versus the Maine Red Claws. It was an incredibly efficient performance: he made 12-of-15 shots (4-of-7 from downtown) and 12-of-13 free throws. Young scores 41, hits 9 threes, versus 87ers  Just days after scoring 40 points against the Red Claws, JY followed it up wi...
