NBA Advent Calendar day 17

 First time I've missed posting on the actual day. I opened the pack and then promptly fell asleep, sleeping until 4 am. The "joys" of chronic health problems. 


This is kind of a crappy picture, sorry. 

Will Riley is a rookie, always glad to get a new Nets card. Thomas Sorber is going to miss the entire season due to injury, the second year in a row the Thunder lost the services of their #1 pick. It worked out pretty well for them last year though. And then Ivica Zubac who has been around a while but I don't know much about. Always glad to get a card of someone with a Z name though.

  1. According to Basketball Reference, there have only been 20 guys with the last name starting in Z to play in NBA and ABA history. Six have played in the past decade, but Zubac is currently the only one right now.

    1. It's interesting to me how the letters Z and L are so much more common in hockey than they are in basketball.

  2. Zubac is on both of my fantasy basketball teams.

    1. I could never figure out how that worked honestly
