The future is bright ...

The future is bright ... at least for the Aussie Boomers, if not the game as a whole in this country.

Nathan Jawai has been called back up to the Toronto Raptors after doing well in the NBDL. With only a couple of weeks left in the regular season and Toronto out of the playoff race, Nathan might see some court-time as the organisation looks to the future and rests its star players.

Patrick Mills continues to shine and although his school didn't make it in to the Big Dance, he's still getting attention in the NIT. The crew at Dime have a post about his match-up with young-gun Stephen Curry. Click here to read the full story and see some highlights from the game.

And finally, when John Rillie can drag himself away from 24 hours of basketball coverage in the US, he's given a recap of prospects for young Aussie bigman, Luke Nevill.

Despite the NBL being in limbo at the moment as everyone waits to hear what is happening next, the future of our national team looks strong with plenty of great young talent developing.
