Basketball is on the rise in NZ. Still far behind AU and not catching up because AU is also improving, but definitely making big strides. That's evident in the number of Kiwi players being picked up by ANBL clubs.

Josh Selby has played NBA games, but that was seven years ago. He hasn't completed a season with a team in two years. Definitely a NZNBL import, but the pedigree oversells his ability.

I've always thought the top four of the NZNBL was slightly higher than NBL1 North/South, with the bottom four generally worse than most teams in NBL1. Quite a disparity that a salary cap is supposedly attempting to address, but this may just dilute the league with the financial challenges.

I would be interested in a crossover NBL1 vs NZ NBL mini tournament or the champion of the end of year NBL1 tournament plays against the NZ NBL winner

The league looks to comprise non-NBL talent given the crossover (suspect Vodanovich will be back in time), which significantly hampers the Nuggets' chances of repeating with their big 3 all in Cairns.

Rams already lining up a 'Big 4' DeShon Taylor, Taylor Britt, EJ Singler and Jack Salt, and it wouldn't surprise me if they picked up either Karena, Rusbatch or Quinn Clinton in the NCAA offseason. Saints to have a NZNBL starting 5 lined up too. Sharks have Alex Pledger but their imports don't raise eyebrows.

With a good quality of imports you'll see some good Aussie also want to come down after ANBL season is over

These imports could be seen as back up options for under performing imports especially the ones able to get into NZ earlier will be easier to get for cheap, already have done quarantine etc

I can even see it work the other way where some cut NBL imports might get taken in NBL1 or NZNBL

Anon 123, "I can see brooks getting onto a roster in nbl".

Is Brooks the American who played for the Gong? I thought his career was over with that injury (knee??).

Brooks & Taylor I can see on NBL rosters next season .. Believe Taylor has to show a bounce back after getting waived by 36ers

The role with Kings showed he's team guy and not about himself but he’ll have to show more to get back to NBL which he’s capable of, great college stats and wasn’t playing scrubs

Martin Twins (Nevada) - Hornets
McDaniels (SDSU) - Hornets
Watson (Teammate) - Raptors
James (Wyoming) - Kings
Merrill (Utah State) - Bucks
Jessup & Hutchinson (Boise State) Warriors/Bulls

More guys on G League Rosters

Well we will NOT be seeing Armoni Brooks suit up with the Huskies, seeing that he just signed a two-way deal with the Houston Rockets. Now teammates with Jae'Sean Tate
