I put this in its own thread so that hopefully someone can find confirmation.
Gani Lawal is a decent prospect. Doesn't have a high ceiling but could turn into decent depth.
If he's with the Spurs, it could just be as training camp fodder or perhaps he was signed as the fifth big. Hopefully he's fodder but there really aren't that many halfway capable bigs on the free agent market available for a minimum contract. If the Spurs want a young fifth big, Lawal would about the level of player they'd be able to snag.
