During the latest NBA Night, 14 games took place, and it’s not sure whether the former overseas professional Tyrese Rice watched them all. What’s sure, though, it’s that he didn’t like the action – as many could agree.
Sharing his frustration on X, the retired 36-year-old expressed his disappointment with what he was witnessing. “NBA is so hard to watch and yet I sit here and make the attempt. Wild shots. Complaining on EVERY possession. No physicality in the game. Stars never foul but shoot hella FTs. No set plays ever. Just a bunch of super talented and skilled guys being talented and skilled”, the 2014 EuroLeague champ commented.
The Boston College alumni, undrafted in 2009, went on to perform on the European stage up until 2020 and never stepped on an NBA court. He started his overseas career with Panionios and managed to win the EuroLeague with Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2014 and the EuroCup with Khimki in 2015. He was also named EuroLeague Final Four MVP, EuroCup Regular Season and Finals MVP, and Basketball Champions League MVP with AEK Athens in 2019.
