    They also could've released him because he found a job somewhere else. I doubt they would've been so keen to cut him otherwise unless he was a real headcase.

    I hear they were really impressed with his play with the International Elites on ESPN 2.

    +1 It is a reasonable assumption that he has a training camp slot or job elsewhere, otherwise there's not much point in waiving him after two days. The Spurs are not pointlessly cruel, and they are willing to help guys out when it doesn't affect the team.

    That pretty much makes it clear that he forced his way into camp. (Not that I blame him. It's not as if any NBA team is likely to want him, but he's better off as a free agent than stuck as a Spurs draftee when they don't want him.)

    I wonder if the Spurs have a camp replacement in mind for them to cut him after the second day of camp. Maybe Duncan will scrimmage to make it 4x5.
    Bonbon time.

    hmmm A lot of things went through my head. The first is that he's a real headcase, cancer and was the guy that injured Danny's hammy! (lol not really, but the headcase issue did cross my mind). I suppose it makes sense that he saw the writing on the wall that he's not making this team and his agent found him a contract elsewhere.

    But maybe they really thought they are better served by having TD help others at this point. Is that possible?

    There are 20 slots in training camp that requires the attention of the coaches. I figure they quickly realize that that he was wasting the coaches time and they let him go.

    Maybe they bring in Bonbon back, an extra player coach wouldn't hurt.

    They could`ve invite me to camp. Never been to US, my guess I am as close to be NBA player as Ryan Richards is.

    Like I said from 2012 post
    Ryan Richards is the absolute worst Spurs draft pick since Sergei Karaulov. He will never be a Spur.

    I was on his bandwagon until he wasn't on the 2015 summer league roster.

    Yeah, he is just lacking in some basic fundamentals of basketball, plus he has seldom, if ever, blended well on any team he's played for.

    It must be the reason. He has the body and skillset to at least find a shot somewhere...Odd because he came off like such a good guy in all his workout interviews...I don't know. Maybe he is just this bad.

    Spurs bringing him in this year was just them doing their due diligence again. They had to give him at least a final look before completely cutting ties with him. We already knew he wasn't much of a player for a long time now....

    They could always bring back Matt Bonner to fill the void.
