Dzanan Musa is finding his way in the NBA. He’s been alternately excited, overwhelmed, exhausted and, well, bemused by it all.

Tom Dowd of BrooklynNets.com tracked his first few days since he was drafted on June 21 as he got used to the Nets and Brooklyn.

“I cannot describe it, that feeling when the camera was on me for 10 or 15 seconds before they called my name,” Musa told Dowd. “I was starting to cry. That passion I have for basketball, I was good all night. I was good all night. And I thought I had some information that probably Brooklyn would pick me, but I didn’t realize until that moment, when they put the cameras on me, I was starting to cry.
