This was the first time in recent years that the NBA Draft didn't include a true local product in the first round.

That wasn't always expected to be…

The 2015 NBA Draft takes place Thursday night in New York and as usual NERR has a full preview, New England style.

The first is Massachusetts native Pat Connaughton, who previously starred…

A few recent commitments have come via the Little East Conference. Western Connecticut State University has a pair of incoming guards who could make quite a formidable backcourt tandem in Maloney High School's Tracy Rumley and Williston Northampton's Kieran Hamilton. The six-foot Rumley had a decorated high school career in the city of Meriden, beginning his career at Platt before spending his final two seasons at Maleony. He averaged over 17 points and nearly 5 rebounds per game as a…
