He was fouled before the double dribble.


You can call that too, even tho he was fouled after having lost the ball...at that point it would’ve been contact during a scramble for the ball, which hadn’t been called a foul during the rest of the game. Anyway, if you do call that, it’s a different result all the same.

“The defendants are on trial for serious federal crimes, and the defendants should not be able to use this trial as a referendum on the merits of the NCAA’s rules or the state of college basketball, in an impermissible effort to garner sympathy with the jury.”

That's a very fair reason to not let him in. There's nothing that can concretely be gained from having Wade on, because A. the accused bribery expands past just him or Sean B. the Wade investigation is a separate branch of this corruption case than the one with Dawkins...therefore, Wade could just stick to his story about his relationship with Dawkins. They're not trying to incriminate him here, per se

Basically, this motion doesn't clear Wade of having not bribed anybody at all, it just clears the chance he'll go on a soapbox and play the same bullshyt amateurism angle that the sport has for decades

"Yahoo Sports reported four-star guard Javonte Smart was the subject of the "strong-ass offer" that FBI wiretaps caught Wade discussing. The offer was made to middleman Shannon Forman, a fixture in Baton Rouge basketball circles who is close with the Smart family, multiple sources told Yahoo Sports."

The convo with Dawkins opened up Will's involvement, but I don't believe the progression of his case will have much else to do with the guy

Stop it, the FBI is trying to get him to NOT testify.

And if the case settles everything will be federally sealed. Wade most likely coming back next year
you can literally see why that is in the post I made right above yours lol...they're not getting him to testify on account of Dawkins. This is a separate probing
