Who to sign into the 2 final spots? 

Post#1 » by raincityraptors » Mon Feb 12, 2024 9:53 pm

Bobby said we would use those open roster spots and that we would look everywhere, including overseas for options.

Our current 2 current 10 day contracts are compensation rewards for 2 players on the 905 that have been playing well this season.

Should they take the final two spots?

Should we look at other players overseas, unsigned, on waivers or on another G-League team to learn more about a player we may want on the team next year?

Who do y'all think deserve a shot with those spots?

I think they were used on Gueye and Winslow right?

Yup but they may not be extended or signed for the rest of the season.

Would you rather keep those two or is there someone else out there that we should get a look at over the course of the rest of the season?

Curious if anybody has insight into available international players.

One player whose stats and videos have caught my attention is Deividas Sirvydis. 22 year-old, 6'8 sharpshooter who is also a waterbug, perimeter-oriented type. Although some scouting reports say he lacks top-tier NBA athleticism, I've seen others that say he's actually a pretty good defender who can get better with added strength. He currently leads EuroCup in scoring and had a good summer with the Lithuanian national team.

Some concerns that he's already kicked around the G League and with the Pistons and Pacers, but he's still real young and his game appears to be growing.

Good call. Looks like he has taken a big step this year.
