The Wayde Neblett mystery, in short form:

even NY-area basketball recruiting gurus haven’t heard of Wayde Neblett, a 2014 5’8 guard from Archbishop Molloy who somehow earned a slot at the NBPA Top 100 camp (we discussed it quickly on the Rumble and on Twitter).

Here is visual evidence that he does exist from the Nice Kicks site:

So now you know.

Per NYC Hoops, he didn’t make a mark, scoring three points and two rebounds total in morning games the first day and not playing in any day two or three games. 

Straight retro. DePaul, bring these outfits back! With longer shorts.

Thanks, @timring3tv! This is, in fact, an afrotastic photo.

“DePaul’s Curtis Watkins and Dave Corzine in the 1975 NCAA Tournament. Afro-tastic!!!”

Also noteworthy that they’re playing Virginia Military Institute, who last went to the tourney in 1977. Also, the Keydets won this game and went to the Elite Eight.

I love watching the NBA but I love watching the post-game fashion just as much as I like watching the games themselves (I know, I’m a modern man). But I have to say that this fashion moment takes the cake. Is it me, or does it seem like Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are the first NBA duo to try conceptual fashion? This is clearly some kind of father/son costume role-play right? I mean, it looks like Durant is taking Westbrook to work with him.
