The Spurs don't have immediate plans to add another player, but will monitor who becomes available as other teams make their cuts. Ronald Dupree, an athletic 6-foot-7 swingman the Spurs tried to sign a year ago, is battling for the final roster spot in Detroit.
The Spurs, coach Gregg Popovich said last week, are "always in the market for a young (small forward) who can defend."
"Every year, the (small forward) position is really a critical position in the league, and the way we play we like that guy to be a defender," Popovich said. "So we've looked for the last couple of years, and are continuing to do so, to find another (small forward) for down the road. We thought Devin Brown might be that guy but decided otherwise."
If you do get him you will love the kid. He can jump out of the gym, and hustles like crazy. Unfortunately we have 3 "project" type players that we don't want to cut, and he's essentially Mo Evans without the jumpshot so we have no space for him. I am actually pretty suprised he was cut because he's been playing great so far in the pre-season.
