I saw this just a few minutes ago.

When we played lsu, Trendon Watford told Herb that he hoped he enjoyed playing pro in Europe.

8 months later and Herb is an NBA player and Trendon is a G league guy

Excellent news! Assuming that means he's playing well in the Summer League?

I wonder if he would let some of borrow a little?

I can't think of anyone more deserving. Good for you Herb!

I caught him in a few games. He just looks the part. Athleticism and ability to guard anyone is high level...

And offensively he's smart enough to produce and play to his strengths. He's a perfect depth guy for all of these NBA teams, I've been impressed.

I read this is the second largest contract in history signed by someone in his draft position. IDK.
