Off the top of my head
Joker
Giannis
Steph
Draymond
Booker
Embiid

I can only think of 6. Don't know who the 7th is. Also, Embiid only played 9 seasons, but he was with Philly for 11 seasons, because he sat out the first 2 seasons due to injury. Even the start of his career was a process... Haha

I looked it up. It's Dwight Powell. He got traded to the Mavs in Dec 2014 and is still with them. He's also Canadian. So maybe that's the special thing you're talking about?

reply

Correct. @Undisciplined simply doesn't know Canadian basketball. He could never get the great Dwight Powell.

reply

Thanks for the sats. I cheated though, because I looked it up. Couldn't think of Powell off the top of my head because he doesn't get much playing minutes. Also fun fact, Powell is the only player on this short list of 7 that was traded to his current team instead of being drafted.

reply

That was the bonus. @Undisciplined

reply

Oh, didn't know the bonus was still up for grabs. Thanks for the sats again I guess, haha.

reply

Why not. No one had gotten it. I gave undisciplined a bonus for finding Thompson who played 10 years with the same team but in two separate stints. Thought that was worthy of some sats.

reply

I was trying to point out something I found interesting from the list. I guess attention to detail help earn sats. Yay!

reply

He didn’t even register as I was scrolling through the rosters.

I figured it was someone like that though

reply

I thought you were on the right track with fellow Canadian Tristan Thompson. Tried to give you a subtle clue saying maybe gnilma would know.

reply

Saying the resident NBA expert might know doesn’t feel like a Canadian clue lol

reply

No kidding. The bigger clue was that it’s something @grayruby knew about the guy.

reply

Well he is Canadian and all.

reply

I even suspected it might be a Canadian, but I didn’t know D-Pow was from the frozen North.

reply

From Toronto. He and I could have been neighbours. We weren't but we could have been.

reply

I just assumed most of Team Canada was from Toronto

reply

Safe assumption. Most are from Toronto and surrounding area. A couple guys from Montreal.
