Chris Kramer's pretty good month

by BoilerPhil on Mar 3, 2011 10:57 AM EST

Chris Kramer's been doing ok for himself in the D-League. Overall he's averaging 11.4 points a game and 3.6 boards, but in the month of February he started getting more starts and minutes and bumped those numbers up to 16.6 points and 3.9 rebounds. He shot 60% (holy crap!) from the floor, 45% (holy crap!) from 3, and 85% from the line, drawing 54 trips vs 68 FG attempts. For the year he's 56% from the floor and 40% from 3. How awesome is that?

Keaton's not shooting as well, but he's getting solid playing time. He's pulling down 5 boards a game and averaging just under 9 points.

I'd say the "D" is working pretty well for him.

for “development”

To your call once more we rally....

Anybody know...

how much these guys get paid to play in the NBDL? I’m glad Kramer and Grant are playing well but I just wonder how long guys can afford to play in this league. With those stats and his defense maybe someone will give him a shot next year. Glad to hear he is doing well.

From an article discussing what happens to the D-League if there is a lockout.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5820950

D-League salaries range from a mere $13,000 to $25,500, and housing and medical care are the biggest perks D-League players receive to offset the league’s modest salaries, compared to what foreign teams pay.

Thanks

I guess that’s not a bad living for someone right out of college. Certainly can’t make a career out of the D League but not a bad life given you don’t have to pay for housing.
