RedTexan Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Why is Shavon Shields playing with Denmark? Good to see he's having a good summer playing basketball. http://www.huskers.c...TCLID=208471061 Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Interesting....... Shouldn't he be in Lincoln working with teammates? Not judging here, just surprised. I wonder if we have other returning players on various summer rosters outside of the state.....? Quote Link to comment

I think it is good opportunity to learn how to play against different styles and maybe get some new perspective on the game. Plus I am sure it is an incredible life experience. Quote Link to comment

I've known that many play locally in summer leagues, but this is the first I've heard of them going internationally, and wondered if we have a history of this; or if this is a newer practice; or what Miles stance is on the trade-off off missing the chemistry of team play vs. the experiences and perspectives you cite.

Red Tape Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I will take competitive international experience in the summer over standard weight training and practice locally any day. Shields is awesome. Not flashy, just impacts the game by playing smart and doing things the right way. Quote Link to comment
