He was absolute trash. If you can’t have any impact on the least talented team in the NBA you probably aren’t an NBA player.
Mr. Body nailed it
So much for that signing. Later bud.

Spurs are doing the right thing. Taking a swing at guys. If they don't work out, take another one until someone sticks
The Roby experiment had ran its course
Sandro is an interesting piece.
from what I've seen he looks worse than Roby, but whatever. Ain't nothing wrong with trying him out
Mamukelashvili? You can't even make these names up
Yea Roby had potential due to his size and athleticism, but his bball IQ and feel for the game were pretty terrible. That’s experiment wasn’t going anywhere. Doubt the new guy will either. No loss here tbh.
glad we took a flier on Roby, but i just dont think theres anything there
Kind of weird with Roby. He's clearly (to me) not a bad player. Not great, but not terrible. Sort of Lyles territory. He was sort of buffer while Sochan got ready to play, but Jere was ready almost right away.
Far as Mamu... definitely a fringe guy statswise. Why not take a swing? Worth mentioning is that he has at least one skill that can be unlocked in the Spurs' system -- he's a terrific passer especially from the perimeter and high post, picking out cutters and so on.
Dunno what this means for the big man corps. Let that shake out over the summer.
Pop may have gotten inside info on him from his pal coach Bud. Not a whole lot at stake here, just an end of the bench guy for another end of the bench guy. At this point of the season, its worth a shot.
Lyles comparison is a flattering compliment. Let that sink in.
He dunked with his off hand well. Good shooting form. Moving on.
He's stuck in the league and can sop up minutes. That's not a terrible thing.
Lyles and KBD are subs utes in my mind. Roby isn’t an NBA player unless Coach Pop calls one of his buddies and gives him raving reviews because he’s a supposed good person.
Meh
4:35pm: San Antonio has officially waived Roby and claimed Mamukelashvili, the team announced. The Spurs immediately converted Mamukelashvili to a standard contract, and their 17-man roster is full.
4:15pm: The Spurs plan to waive F/C Isaiah Roby and will claim F/C Sandro Mamukelashvili off the waiver wire, sources tell Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link).
There is a corresponding move that is missing from Charania’s report, however, as Roby is on San Antonio’s 15-man roster, while Mamukelashvili was on a two-way contract with Milwaukee.
The Spurs’ two-way are currently occupied by forwards Dominick Barlow and Julian Champagnie, so they will either need to promote or waive one of those players, or perhaps immediately promote Mamukelashvili — we’re not sure yet if that’s permitted.
Maybe one of the reason why he's coming.
Love how the Spurs aren't just sitting on their hands like welp
Move em in, move em out. See what you got.
A lefty with Mamu as his nickname?????!
Wasn't sure if he was a lefty, but look at his freethrows.

Welcome Marmaduke! Wikipedia says he grew up idolizing Zaza because he is also Georgian.
The athletic way he attacks the rim from up high reminds me of... Jeremy Sochan.
And not Viktor Sanikidze...
I thought I remembered Roby giving Spurs trouble last season in a game V OKC.
I hoped for better.
Oh well.
Basically his draft profile sounds like Sochan:
