In Sulaimon’s lone year at Maryland, he averaged 11.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 32.9 minutes per game. He shot 42.5 percent from three-point range. He transferred to the Terps after graduating from Duke.
He won an NBA Summer League title with the Chicago Bulls in July, although his performance was pretty underwhelming.
The chances he appears in an actual NBA game any time soon are slim, but this is exciting nonetheless for Sulaimon.
