With three of their best players in Nets camp and another in Trail Blazers camp, the Springfield Armor would appear to be at a disadvantage. Not so. For the second time in two nights, the short-ended Armor won, beating the Fort Wayne Mad Ants in overtime, and for the second time, Lance Hurdle led them.

I originally planned on there being somewhere in the neighborhood from 25 to 45 players from the NBA Development League in an NBA training camp when they opened this week. Turns out I was low, however, as there are 55 players in camp that were called up from the D-League for their shot at the NBA.

ESPN Dallas reports that the Mavericks top free agent target is the Nets' Brandan Wright, who went from lottery pick to oft-injured bench player before being traded to the Nets at the deadline. Wright, a 6'10" forward, is still only 23 years old. He had said during the season and off-season that he wanted to return.

NBA training camp invites for the 2011-12 season should be more interesting than most considering teams will have just two weeks to install new offenses, get into game shape and whittle themselves down to a 15-man roster before the games actually begin to matter.

NBA teams are officially allowed to talk to agents, essentially tipping off what should be an NBA free agency frenzy (even if the names involved aren't exactly the stars of the league). That shouldn't affect D-League call-ups quite yet as teams work to lock up the bigger names first, meaning Ridiculous Upside will have to focus on other things happening around the Development League.

Jeff Foote, the seven-footer who helped Cornell get to the Elite Eight in 2010, has been signed by the Armor who has been without a true center since Chris Taft hurt his knee and was waived last week. Foote has played for Maccabi Tel Aviv and was signed this summer by Zastal in the Polish League, where he was replaced by Jordan Williams.

"It’s great," Jardine said. "You got some of the best point guards in the country that you’re competing against every year. And you got the best point guard in the NBA teaching you. I’ve built a good relationship with Chris Paul and he’s helped me throughout my college career, so it’s an honor."
