One of my favorite Cats to wear the Blue & White, Deandre Liggins. I remember talking with Hat and others a few years back that he would play his way onto an NBA roster. Orlando kept him on board with a guaranteed contract today, for the remainder of the season. Where he will go from there I do not know, but it's just a good thing to see a kid with a story like his to play hard and give himself a shot. DeAndre Liggins Gets Guaranteed Contract
He's one half of a winning bet that gets me a free dinner in Memphis when I'm in town for Clippers-Grizz in April from an NBA scout. I bet him Liggins and Julyan Stone would both be on NBA rosters this year. He thought at least one of them would spend all year in the D League.
