I'm sure I read early on in the offseason that he was gone- Magic or someone were showing interest

Hustling, strong character, mediocre talent, problably warrants a raise

He is going to have to compete with Lou for the full room exception. When continue their mediocrity they will be signed for the max.

The Future is Bright!

Darrell Arthur had health issues last year and played for Memphis for a couple of years and improved his shooting and 3pt shot last season, and is a rebounder/shot blocker
Kevin Serephin wants a BIGGER role than the one he got in Washington and is a TOUGH PF/C, with a mid range shot, decent rebounder, shot blocker, shot blocker, with good athleticism/mobility with hustle points

Larry Sanders ability to rebound/block shots and play PF/C could be a gamble but for the vet min/partial guarantee as he is getting paid by The Bucks, low risk/high reward

Joel Freeland is going back to Europe, he knows his role and that is rebounding/defense, has a mid range game with high IQ and the "professional/high character player" that we want to collect

Reggie Evans is a vet that will give 110% effort and is more consistent than Acy and hustles/does the dirty work and doesn't mind being towards the end of the rotation if Lou Amundson wants more than vet min

Above are some Vet min players above to target, besides D League talents like below at PF, PF/C

Willie Reed as Nets continue to collect young talents on the cheap, who I compared to a poor mans Greg Monroe at PF/C

Orlando Sanchez who I compare to Jared Sullinger that played on our D League roster last year
Arinza Onuaku hustle PF that rebounds well with a high motor
Jerrelle Benimon SF, SF/PF, maybe PF/C like Draymond Green/David Lee and skilled/versatile enough to play Lamar Odom's role at point/forward a bit

Lou Amundson, PLEASE do not sign him for more than the vet min
Along with Acy who was rumored that Orlando had interest with him but has signed Jason Smith since then to a 1year deal

Guards that could shoot
Jarrell Eddie/Nate Walters are both SNIPERS along with the Baron brothers with Jimmy Baron on our summer league roster and Billy Baron as well
Scotty Hopson who was waived from Cleveland last year

It is unlikely but Josh Smith is still one of the more talented players left and could be available for the room exemption
Along with AB, Byron Mullons, and then Darell Arthur, with Josh Smith could hit the 3pter, and some options


Think we need to add a PG that could penetrate/finish and facilitiate, with either Shved or Daniel Hackett who will be working out for us along with others like Dallas/Clippers watching
Daniel Hackett is a 6-6 and 210 pds, 27years of age, and could play a role similar to Livingston but with a better 3pt shoter and could also post up/finish with both hands, and penetrate/finish/facilitate


With 3/4 roster spots left,
depending on the partial guarantee on SG/SF, Ricky Ledo along with the unguaranteed contract of Early and Thanasis who took 500k less last year

OVIDIJUS GALDIKAS 7-2 230pds, Bobdan Marjonivic signed with The Spurs a Center in Euro at 7-3 290pds and is pretty skilled for his size

LOUIS LABEYRIE 200pds PF our final draft pick last year
MAURICE NDOUR 200pds SF/PF though put up great numbers last season in college

Ben Strong PF/C 6-10 to 6-11 235pds
TRAVIS WEAR SF/PF


Aaron Harrison, PG/SG, and Duke PG, Quin Cook are also some undrafted options to consider

He seems to be an afterthought. Hard worker but no particular strength to make him a priority to resign. Can only have so many hustlers with limited skills
