Rookies, Sixers Squad
I just heard from a reliable source that Brad Gerlach, Adam Benson, and Matt Sutton have made the sixers squad this season. They were told to go out after their studies have finished and will be required to go and try out for 11 12 and 13 next year.
Looks good that they will develop some players for the next few seasons. I heard they have all deserved it as they have all put in a solid oncourt training month.
The 3 them have also just been anounced in the Academy squad.
They are all being developed at the guard spot. I think Gerlach and Sutton are great guards already, and speaking to both Steve and Phil they both are confident that Benson can develop into a 6'4, 6'5 point/off guard. They said that he has the ability to play inside and outside.
Gerlach and Sutton have also been told that they will be developed to do both inside outside aspects of the game.
It will be interesting to see how all three go in the next ABL season and with the sixers trainings.
