Did anyone from last years get any traction with an NBL club?
The Herald Sun said "Jeremy Kendle (Brisbane Bullets), Joel Spear (Adelaide 36ers) and Mason Bragg (Perth Wildcats) made it onto NBL rosters through the 2016 event."

When will an NBL club get a brain and sign Roy Booker !?!?
He's keen on Oz too. The 3 import rule would make him very affordable. Certainly #3. Anywhere but cold ol Ballarat.
Booker couldn't defend to save his life, also didn't like anyone else shooting it, but you're right I'm surprised no one in the NBA has taken him.
Booker seems better than Kendle, but lacks defence. How old is Booker now?
At 33, Booker should be looking at other career options, not becoming an NBL rookie.

Kendle is far better than Booker. Booker doesnt even try on defense ... incredible shot maker though and a treat to watch at seabl level
Last I heard was about $80k O/s. PLus didn't like the cold in the Rat
