    True, but I wrote that before he sprained his ankle. I wonder why he wasn't playing in the warmup games.

    Carlos Morais will be in training camp with the Raptors this season, not sure if he'll get a contract but the Raps like him

    Nigeria up 37-24 at the half! Aminu quiet again, but maybe his defense is helping, because that's a pretty pathetic scoreline for Angola. And he does have 3 steals (to go with his 3 TOs).

    Positive, he did enough to win and not enough to get injured...some of his teammates have played together regularly for a long time so he's not playing in the tournament with a lot of chemistry as is the case with many African rosters.
