GREENVILLE, S.C., Jan. 31, 2007 - Three NBA Development League Teams made the final day of January a busy one with roster moves as the season reaches the halfway point.
The Bakersfield Jam acquired veteran guard/forward Dion Glover (6-5, 225) to fill the roster spot vacated when Tamar Slay was waived last week due to injury. The 20th overall pick in 1999 NBA Draft by Atlanta, Glover played in 294 NBA games with the Hawks, Toronto Raptors, San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets, averaging 20.9 minutes, 8.2 points and 3.1 rebounds. His most recent action was with Champville in Lebanon.
The Sioux Falls Skyforce have reacquired guard DeSean Hadley (6-3, 190) and acquired forward/center Eddy Fobbs (6-11, 240), who was waived by Albuquerque on Jan. 29. The Skyforce waived guard/forward Jeff Varem due to injury. Hadley has played in 13 games (eight starts) for Sioux Falls, averaging 28.2 minutes, 5.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.9 assists. Fobbs played in 20 games (seven starts) for Albuquerque, averaging 16.0 minutes, 3.9 points and 3.7 rebounds.
The Tulsa 66ers made a couple of roster moves, bringing in guard Jeremy Kelly (6-4, 205) and center John Edwards (7-0, 275). Kelly fills the roster spot vacated when the Memphis Grizzlies made Tulsa guard Will Conroy the eighth GATORADE Call-Up of the season on Tuesday. After averaging 16.7 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 28 games as a senior at the University of Tennessee-Martin last season, Kelly played briefly for JL Bourg Basket in France before being released due to injury in November 2006. Edwards was waived by Albuquerque on Jan. 29 after playing in 15 games (seven starts) for the T-Birds and averaging 8.9 points and 4.4 rebounds in 17.4 minutes.
