Currently we are seeing Dante, Jonah and Ben taking the world by Storm.
Looking at the Dads who was the better import?
Bruce Bolden
Dave Simmons
Cecil Exum
Exum got dunked on by Gaze so that rules him out.

Bolden then Simmons then Exum.
My memories of Exum were mainly as a role player. Simmons more of a star then 4th option. Bolden was just brilliant with the Magic and Razorbacks off the bench but I don't remember him at Kings too much.
All were big strong men and I wouldn't have much chance of shifting them out of the way around the basket!
Exum was more of a finesse player (jump shooter) than the other 2 from memory, plus as has been mentioned was brutally posterised by Gaze and thus is automatically ineligible to win any comparison.
Simmons was very good but Bolden for the win IMO.

Thank god no one has brought up Rocky Crosswhite
But Seriously
So Far...? like right now in 2018 ?
the best import dad - for Australian basketball , both international, NBL and locally - no contest ?
its Cal Bruton
I wouldn't say it's no contest with Bolden but yes I'd agree with Cal

Wayne Larkins - His son is the best player I've seen warm up in the NBL over the past 10 years!
I know, it will never get old :) Hoping for my little basketball soon :P
