Man Euroleague is literally the 2nd best basketball league in the world, 10 times better than college , 5 times better than the D league. Literally multiple NBA level hoopers in Euroleague, Mike James is one of them, dude was averaging over 20 a game for the suns for half a season till he went back to Euroleague.

David Chandler it’s not that they can’t get a spot. It’s that they don’t want to sit on an nba bench in the prime of their career.

Mike James is inspirational. He went from Juco to D1, gets in the NBA, leaves the NBA, kills in the Euro league for a few years, then gets back in the NBA with a couple of 10-day contracts to a long-term contract for a championship contender. The grind and drive he has is amazing. I hope the Nets get the chip

If anyone has ever wondered how crazy difficult it is to make it onto an NBA roster consider this: Mike James had to claw and fight his way just to be on the bench of the Brooklyn Nets. Unbelievably skilled player, but at his height it's very difficult to get your shot off on NBA defenders. Unbelievable player. Wish him the best.

He has decent size/athleticism for his position but him scoring on an nba level was never a question.

See thats where the issue is, the scouts in the USA are dimensions focused and stat focused, mainly looking into athleticism as the criteria on whether or not someone will be great. Look at Jokic for instance. If he was recruited by standard american scouts he would have never been able to show the world what he is capable of. He was picked up by a Serbian scout who saw potential in him through a newspaper article. Most NBA teams passed on him thinking he would be nothing, but look at him now. Basketball is more than wingspan, height and speed. Humans are inteligent beings, capable of adapting and utlizing their own advantages and skills that others dont have. Its insane thinking that Mike James with such skill sets has to ride the bench or have to fight to get to the league.

He's in a gray area for the NBA. Most teams are looking for a point guard that is a facilitator, so talented point guards that are pure scorers get pushed out (think Jimmer Fredette). His skillset is more like a shooting guard but he's 6'1".
