I still don't get why Walsh doesn't look to go after players who could have been drafted and weren't. How do we keep missing out on the guys like Jerel McNeal, Dominic James, etc, etc. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

Well yeah, but I mean, why aren't we getting to these guys first? There was a few guys last year I think we missed the boat on too. Is it a big deal? In the end, I doubt it, but it would be nice to see us go after some of the guys every now and then.

Guys and their agents sometimes look at teams and the realistic chances of making a roster and amount of playing time they look to get in SL. So if a team knows you draft a center with your lottery pick it is highly unlikely their agent will steer them to your SL roster. The same with the NFL and their undrafted free agents.

There are no restrictions on summer league rosters. The NBA CBA does not cover summer league that's why you can invite anyone you want to your summer league roster.
