In response to digamma
Juzang was drafted by the Heat. The Saigon Heat.
He was the first overall pick in the Vietnamese Basketball Association draft. He was eligible for the draft because he's Vietnamese born.
Kind of like a college buddy of mine who was Canadian born and thus the first overall pick in the Canadian Football League draft.
Interesting that the Vietnamese league has teams named both for Ho Chi Minh City (post-war name) and Saigon (pre-war name).
Was that HFB player on the '97 team Fleiszer or Kacyvenski? They were both stars on the first team to be recruited by Murphy and have an undefeated Ivy record, I recall...
