Does Scott Machado count? His name was floated around us for the mock drafts for awhile but he went undrafted. If Collison really does become a trade chip or we lose Hill then this guy could be a decent backup on the cheap.

I assume he's under consideration. I'm pretty sure we brought him in for workouts, which means we at least considered drafting him. If he went undrafted then absolutely we might bring him to camp or sign him to some unguaranteed contract.

But does he count as a reclamation project? I hope he gets a summer league invite. We need somebody to throw lobs to Miles Plumlee. Who do I talk to about creating a smilie facepalm? I need one of those right here.

Mayo is going to be unrestricted as they didn't give him a qualifying offer of 7. I supposed I'd rather pay Mayo 7 than Gordon 14 but I don't want to make a run at either of them until we see how Lance and OJ do in the summer league.

That's simply going to be too late. Free agency will effectively be almost done by that point.
