19 Jayhawks in the NBA!
Oct 30, 2015 12:50 AM #1

I check box scores every day to see how our former heroes are doing in the league. Early on, besides the Morris twins, not much to write about. Although there are 19 former 'Hawks on NBA rosters to start the season!

Over at the other site, there are individual articles about most, I assume more are being written in the days to come as there's nothing about Kieff, Cus, Wigs, Sasha, and Kelly.

The most interesting line from the articles is this on Cliff, who if you didn't know is on the Blazers roster.

His new teammate, veteran big man Chris Kaman, told The Oregonian he couldnโ€™t believe the entire league passed on the rookie from KU during the draft.

"He should have been drafted in the first round, if you ask me,โ€™โ€™ Kaman said. "He is an animal. Getting him as an un-drafted player is unbelievable.''

Anyways, I'll keep us updated a little bit through the season.

Those drawings, ugh, sorry, but they don't exactly flatter our guys.

A commenter on the article I referred to about Joel (this was over on the other site) said this gem:

  "I'm sorry but Joel Embiid is an embarrassment to all of KU nation.  God given talent and athleticism wasted away. What a shame."

Me, I'm not embarrassed by Joel.

@RockkChalkk Figure $500 to $1000 each for a decent tattoo, depending on whether it's black & gray or color and how intricate it is. More for larger ones.

@RockkChalkk

Aldrich, Kaun, Collison, Withey Hinrich and Wiggins are tattoo-less, all the others I imagine at least $3K-$5K per player, or $40k-$70k?

@JayHawkFanToo Embiid? Not that it matters.

@Crimsonorblue22

You are correct. He did not have any while at KU and I have not seen any recent photo of him
