He’s hurt a lot. He averages about 53 games per season played in his 5 year career.

I can’t imagine him becoming more durable as he gets closer to 30.

I’d pass.

Guessing Harrison Barnes or Tucker coming back?

My pipe dream of absorbing Duncan Robinson seems dead with the guards we've added.

Not seeing a vet C on either Roster to take on.


Spurs just paid to have Charlotte waive Devonte Graham’s contract, I think they’re going to be the 3rd team.

Plus, what role would he play here?

We already have these players who can log F mins:
THJ, Moore, Beasley, Ausar, Holland, Cade, Tek (assumingly), Harris, Stewart, Klintman.
