Demarr J. could be a solid bench mate with Chillz

I was thinking that Demarr Johnson could be picked up to help Chillz and Acie improve our 2nd unit's scoring woes. Demarr would help by spreading the floor a little bit with his ability to knock down outside jumpers and 3s. He's tall and athletic enough to play D on SGs and SFs and he runs the floor well.
With the exception of Chillz, our 2nd unit has really been garbage and they are crushing our flow and momentum lately causing us to play from behind in all the games lately. Zaza has been the main problem lately and Law and Shelden have NOT done much better. Childress has been the lone bright spot in that unit. It would also be nice if Woody played Mario more minutes. Especially with JJ playing so lackluster. JJ should drop down to about 34-36 mpg until he can find his heart and his jumper again.
It wouldn't be a huge move, but it could help a lot by adding some solid outside shooting, perimeter defense, and more athleticism to our 2nd unit. Not sure if we need to make a move to pick him up or if we could get a injury exception for Speedy or not. But I think it could really help.
