You have to be incredibly good to miserably fail without embarrassing yourself at this level.[/quote]

A 6’6” 220# guy who started  for a good D1 team and played significant NCAA tournament minutes described his G (then D) league tryout to me.  He went into a scrimmage with current players, tried to defend a guy going for a dunk, and wound up on the floor with a broken nose and the guy who made the dunk standing over him saying “And 1, b——.”

The notion that anyone on this forum imagines that they or anyone they know could play in the G league shows how delusional people are.

My kid was dunking on full grown “good” adult pickup players as a 14 year old, and he will never in a million years have a shot at playing in the G league. [/quote]

Delusional is correct.  Even at the G League the level of play is off the charts.  It’s not just the skill, but the speed of the game.  It is unlike anything most of us can comprehend.  For context, players at small D1 schools are amazing players and athletes.  Most of them will never sniff a G League game unless they buy a ticket.[/quote]
