It Seems As if Not Getting Drafted Hit Austin Freeman Pretty Hard

"Freeman was traveling 71 mph in a 55-mph zone, the records said. Other offenses included reckless driving, negligent driving, failure to obey a traffic control device and not displaying the vehicle registration card when asked by the officer. The reckless driving citation was for “wanton and willful disregard for safety of persons and property.”"

First off, I’m surprised Freeman didn’t get drafted. The number of foreign players taken late in the 2nd round was surprising – especially considering the fact that US college players taken in the 2nd round have a better track record of actually playing in the NBA than their foreign counterparts. You mean to tell me nobody has room on an NBA roster for a 6-foot-3 shooting guard who shot 44 percent from three as a junior when the Hoyas actually had a post-player with skills (Greg Monroe)?

Come on, Freeman. Get your act together, tear it up in a Euro league or the NBDL and then make the league in 2013. [Wash Times]
