Thanks to @langwhitaker for the tip – JR Rider is possibly signing with an ABA team. His agent says they “hope to get it done,” meaning an agreement between Rider and the representatives at the North Texas Fresh. I didn’t even know there still was an ABA, but apparently there is a league as well as an Atlanta franchise. And apparently from the Wikipedia page, the Atlanta Vision “in the 2006-07 season, finished 15-7, good for first place in the Barnes-Malone division over Tim Hardaway’s Florida Pit Bulls.” Wow. Good luck to JR. He acknowledged me when i had about 10th row center court seats one time years ago, I’m thinking one of the first years of Philips.
Update: Just noticed the Atlanta Vision only had one home game last year. No wonder no one’s heard of them.
