Sherron Collins will try to make an NBA team another way after getting snubbed in the 2010 NBA draft.
Collins signed with Charlotte’s Summer League squad on Friday, June 25, which begins playing July 5 in Orlando, Fla.
Coach Bill Self said last night must have been a disappointing night for Collins, but it looks like things worked out today.
“To wake up this morning and know that Michael Jordan and Larry Brown want him in their camp is something to certainly take the sting off from last night,” Self said in a release. “Hopefully he will go in there with the right frame of mind and with an attitude to go earn it.”
The point guards on the team include North Carolina standout Raymond Felton, who is the primary starter. Felton is a pending free agent, however. D.J. Augustin from Texas is the backup.
Also challenging Collins for a guard spot on Charlotte is Justin Dentmon from Washington who spent the past year overseas.
