Now that the NBA draft has passed, lets look at some updates going on around the league with many prospects.

 The Golden State Warriors have offered Serbian Center Kosta Perovic a 2 year contract. Kosta was their second round pick last year.
 
Jeremy Hunt the former shooting guard at the University of Memphis, will play on the Memphis Grizzles summer league team.
 
Another former Memphis Tiger DaJuan Wagner will be playing on the Denver Nuggets summer league team. The Nuggets may also consider bringing back their former 2002 #5 pick and major bust Nikoloz Tskitishvilli and let him play on the summer league team as well.
 
Coby Karl signed a rookie free agent deal with the Lakers and will play on the summer league team. He is the son of Denver Nuggets coach George Karl.
 
Sun Yue said he is very pleased that he was drafted by the Lakers. He said it’s a good city for him, he’s familiar with LA becuase he played 2 ABA seasons there. Some question the Lakers for selecting him so high.
 
Ivan Radenovic has signed a rookie free agent deal with the Clippers and will play on their summer league team.
 
Darryl Watkins and Mustafa Shakur will play on the Kings summer league team.
 
Rashad Jones-Jennings and Dustin Salisbery

Trey Johnson was invited to play on the Miami Heat summer league team, and he will join them immediately.

Trey Johnson is a nice pick up for the Heat, a major still for them if he makes the team. .

Fran Vazquez is the exact reason I wouldn’t choose an international player that isn’t guaranteed to come over right away. They end up being wasted picks. Instead of picking him we could have had Sean May, Rashad McCants, Gerald Green, David Lee, or even Joey Graham. Anyone but the LAME Fran Vazquez. .

I’m pulling for Coby Karl to make the Lakers roster. He is a solid player and kid. It would be great to see him get a shot after all he has been through. I thought his dad would be the first to give him a shot. .

DaJuan for some reason has changed his mind at the last second about being playing on the Nuggests summer team. Does anyone know why? .
