I see the Stanley Umude erasure lurking in the Brew Hoop comment section, and I simply won’t “stan” for it—OK, let me have that one. Am I a sicko for openly advocating for a two-way guy—who may well be gone in a few months—to get real minutes on this team? Probably. Do I care? Not in the slightest.
We’ll get to that. But first, some bio stuff:
Stanley Umude joins Milwaukee on a two-way contract as a somewhat mature-aged recruit at 25 years old. So, where did this dude come from? Stanley played last season on a two-way with Detroit after spending the previous season mostly on their G League team (Basketball Reference tells me he signed a ten-day contract with the Pistons in the first year, playing in one game).
