11/20/2021 - Upsyndrome has just acquired Warren Newby for $ 112 700.

Warren Newby was pick 1 in the season 37 draft by Upsyndrome.

Trained, sold in season 43 for $2.5 million; came home for $112,000.

"I want to die, or live forever, in an Upsyndrome uniform," says Warren Newby.


Haha. Good eye, detective! You’re investigation skills, scouting, attention to detail, forum participation and overall activity level remind me of a few NBBA managers I’ve played against over the years. They’re all D1 champions so not bad company to be in. I have a hunch you’re headed in that direction.

I typically don’t go the sentimental route and reacquire former players, because it can be pricey if you let feelings get in the way of business; however, the price was right to bring this particular prodigal son back and I felt there was a need.

Originally, Warren Newby was my main prospect that I had planned to build my team around before business got in the way and I was forced to sell him. Unfortunately, Newby did not play a part in my NBBA/B3 run, as planned, and the manager that acquired him failed to train him significantly enough beyond the 120 TSP mark I originally sold him at. So to my dismay, I watched from a far as his potential was completely wasted.

Anyways, he’s back where he belongs and he’s ready to contribute again. All is right in the world.

I got greedy against him. I wanted to:
1. get Blanco to 50 (failed)
2. win the game (see #1)
3. get some minutes for my trainees (succeeded)

He's the only team I really scouted in depth this season. I saw the PG trainees and tried to create a mismatch, but I was also worried that he might exploit my starting/backup trainees at SF. Then it didn't matter because we had no answer for Aiden Brantley (34pts/20reb) all night. I'm pretty sure he even scored the winning basket. He's a monster.
