Love this:

Underwood has addressed any language barriers by adjusting how the coaches deliver information. No matter the first language, all the players have played “NBA 2K,” so coaches use 2K-inspired badges in their scouting reports. A great shooter, for instance, would get a triple-A badge — better stay with him “anytime, anyplace, anywhere.” Cannot guard? He’s a beard with the silhouette of James Harden’s face.

Can’t wait for the reactions to this:

Stojakovic is excited, but also not in a hurry for it to get here. He’s on his third school in three years, and he knows it’s no certainty where everyone will be in a year. “This is one of those teams where we really have to cherish the season,” he said.
