To play on the Saint John Mill Rats, you can’t just play a good game, you’ve got to have a good personality.
That’s
according to the President and General Manager of the team, Ian
McCarthy, and the philosophy he’ll be bringing to the National
Basketball League of Canada’s draft later this month as they add a few
new faces to the team.
McCarthy
tells CHSJ News the players have to be willing to be involved in the
community, they have to be amiable and willing to sign autographs for
the kids. In terms of on-the-court play, he says the top two things
they're looking for is athleticism and talent.
The Mill Rats have fifth pick in the 2013 National Basketball League of Canada draft on Monday, August 19 in Markham, Ontario.
