Yesterday, a Shams-bomb firework was dropped when all-knowing NBA guru Shams Charania notified the Twittersphere that Xavier Rathan-Mayes would be signing a 10-day contract with the Memphis Grizzlies. After going undrafted in the 2017 NBA draft, Xavier Rathan-Mayes suited up for 39 games with the Westchester Knicks and was good for 16 points, 7 assists, 6 rebounds and 2 steals per game.
Well, Nigel Hayes didn’t like being left behind in Westchester and decided to drop 35 big ones that same day in a jealous fit of rage. Hayes went 5-for-11 from behind the arc, which is worthy of a brief break from my patronizing tone and perhaps even light applause.
