    This is decent size investment into Africa.

    In Africa, this is cause for celebration. Opportunity will be created.

    Their basketball league and development wil grow, should grow if spent like intended.

    If these guys don't fukk it up...

    good investment

    tons of raw talent, plenty of guys that have gone before them to look up to and try to follow in footsteps

    meanwhile, we'll get more of them and their countrymen vaccinated with the gates chip for future slavery

    I met Illini. He has one of the best cross dribbles I have ever seen. And his skyhook is as good as Kareem's.
