This is March.
Well technically, the calendar just turned to April, but this is no April Fool’s Day. In this long, winding road of a season that will assuredly end with the Brooklyn Nets having the NBA’s sixth-worst record, our last plot point is perhaps the most random.
Is Drew Timme an NBA player?
Unlike the other G League finds that have exceeded expectations in Brooklyn this season, namely Tosan Evbuomwan and Tyrese Martin, Timme arrives with a pedigree. He is one of the all-time great players in Gonzaga’s storied program, and though he never won a National Championship in school, his 301 March Madness points rank sixth all-time.
