What happens with Abdel Nader?

[Yoki_IsTheName]

Wish we could take him to camp, so he can practice with the first team squad.

But it's looking like he needs to do a stash year this season. Not worried about it, I think he's going to learn and be good wherever he gets stashed if the Summer League observations hold true.

But I'd like to see him get some practice reps with the roster atleast on some capacity.

[SHAQATTACK]

Rather have him than Young , Hunter , or Jackson.

[OhioGreen]

I don't care.

He's never going to play meaningful NBA minutes.

If you evaluated all rookies, how many could you put a checkmark by in the following?  If you HONESTLY evaluate Nader, I check them all.  Which do you say no to, that led you to your statement?
How say you, fellow Celtic bloggers?

Athletic
NBA body
Shoots 3's very well
very good ballhandler, with either hand
good ability to slash AND finish with either hand
capable defender

thank you for your valuable contribution to this thread.

[Boris Badenov]

I'm rooting for him. It'd be a nice story.

Though he's older he improved a lot his senior year, so he may just be a late bloomer.

Most likely scenario though is that he heads into obscurity after a year or two and has a decent pro career in another country.

There should be competition, if he outplays others, he deserves a spot.   If not, they so be it.  A chance is all a guy can ask for, really.

[Csfan1984]

Thought he had an agreement to play for an Israeli club.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Stashed. There's really little to discuss here.

Who cares

Is this a joke or something I just haven't seen?  I find it unlikely that an Egyptian-born, probably Muslim player would be signing with an Israeli team.

Please tell me you know there are Muslims in Israel.

I am aware.  I also kind of knew this:

Mashour’s story, and his current place at the heart of Bnei Herzliya’s roster, is undeniably unusual. In a league full of Israeli Jews, top Europeans and talented Americans, Mashour is the only player of Arab heritage. Perhaps more pointedly, in a country where more than a fifth of the eight million residents are Arab, Mashour is one of only two to play in the top division in more than decade.

While there are non-Muslim Arabs and non-Arab Muslims, I doubt there are very many of those in the Israeli league.

Why don't you go have a few beers with some Lakers fans.
