they were teammates. Tobi was a year older.Hop said:
Interesting that McClellan made an NBA roster as well. He had a long, interesting journey in college. He was high school teammates with Tobi if I recall correctly.

Brooks also commented on the release of rookie Danuel House, who was waived to clear a spot on their 15-man roster for Jennings:
"We have to make a decision on one of them. We can't keep them. It'd be nice to petition the league for 16, but we can't. He has a bright future. It was tough to see him go. He's had some good moments with us in practice and he's played well in the D-League. Hopefully he can get picked up, or who knows, we can meet again. I thought he's had a good impact with the year that he's had with us."
John Wall and Markieff Morris each see a lot of NBA basketball ahead for the 23-year-old House:
"It's unfortunate but it's not the end of the world," Morris said. "I talk to him all the time. This is your first chance. Second and third chances are going to come. You just got to keep pushing on. He was in a tough situation here. Just got to keep going."
"It's a business. I think his injury to his wrist kind of hurt him a little bit," Wall said. "Not having the opportunity to play and see what he can do. I still think he's a young, promising player in this league. Hopefully he gets the opportunity. Maybe back here. We don't know. I think he can help an NBA team if he gets the chance. He's athletic. He can shoot the ball. He does a lot of things on the basketball court that people probably don't see."
