I dunno when we'll announce who we're signing to our summer league team, but here's some guys we should look at. My apologies if these guys have already been signed.

Zabian Dowdell- Good defense and size at the PG position. Solid jumper. Could use him if Mardy/Dickau get moved:

Joao Gomes- Athletic, Portuguese prospect. Poor man's Wilson Chandler?

Kyle Visser- Not a bad offensive center. Can shoot the rock.

Ali Traore- Strong, French post player

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=tx2252847cap&prov=st&type=lgns

Trey Johnson- Small school wing was the nation's 2nd leading scorer

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=tx2143649cap&prov=st&type=lgns

Darryl Watkins- Big time underachiever at center who can at least block shots

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=tx2141384cap&prov=st&type=lgns

Curtis Sumpter- Injuries have made him a forgotten man. Is a power 3/undersized 4. A very poor man's QRich.

Mustafa Shakur- Big name player for a big name program. Can push the ball, but his shot is inconsistent

Rashad Jones Jennings- Undersized PF led the nation in rebounding. Reggie Evans type?

I don't know how we could possibly sign anyone not already on the team. We still have to create a roster spot for Chandler and Nichols. I, however, do agree that some of those guys should be brought in for us to at least get a closer look at in case something opens up.

We can give guys tryouts on the summer league team. Unguaranteed.

I was a little surprised Shakur did not get even a late 2. But he has signed a guaranteed contract with sacremento so hes off the board.
RIP Crushalot😞

Yes- but the problem is guys know who has roster spots available, and for any of the better undrafted guys- guys that think they can play in the nba- their first choice will be to look elsewhere.

My guess is we'll still get Sumpter cause he's local.
