Quick Look at Former Mountaineers with NBA Connections

Da'Sean Butler: Opened camp with the San Antonio Spurs, but was waived yesterday. FUTURE: Could easily find a place overseas to play, but could elect to play in the D-League to stay close to the NBA.

Devin Ebanks: Starts his second year with the Los Angeles Lakers. FUTURE: The team exercised his contract, and Ebanks will likely get a chance for some more playing time if he can adjust to playing more shooting guard and small forward.

Casey Mitchell: Was invited to attend camp in Houston. Mitchell was then waived earlier this week. FUTURE: Will be headed back to Sioux Falls in the D-League, where he has had a nice start to the season.

Joe Alexander: Currently playing in Russia for BC Krasnye Krylia. FUTURE: Tough to say at this point, but might be overseas for the foreseeable future. He had an outstanding season in the D-League last year and never got a sniff.
