As featured on Sunday’s here at Random Thoughts, I usually update what the former players did in the week’s previous NBA games. This week, I will be adding on one category (minutes played) so you can see if they are getting significant playing time.

Lately, I had been getting questions on the whereabouts of certain former UCONN men’s basketball players. So I did some research and this is what i came up with.

  • Denham Brown, who was the last cut for the Seattle Supersonics, was drafted in the 1st round of the NBA Developmental League by the Tulsa 66ers. It is known yet whether or not he will play there or look to join other UCONN players overseas.
  • Khalid El-Amin is now playing over in Ukraine. He was the two time player of the year in the Turkish League before going to Ukraine.
