    This seems like it would be a good move for the Spurs. I hope they can find a good fit for the team to use the last roster spot on.

    He is my favorite to make the team.
    And as someone so aptly put it, the Spurs are hoping for lightning in a bottle.
    Bruce Bowen II. One can only hope.

    How many people are the Spurs going to work out without Signing anyone at all? I hear a new name everyday.
    Do you even really follow the Spurs? They won't truly commit that 15th roster spot until player buyouts in March. Until then, it may be someone on a non-guaranteed contract out of camp who will likely be cut by the guarantee date, followed by some d-league callups. The Spurs have their playable roster right now. Unless someone who is a good fit is bought out in March, they have their rotation already, and anyone in the 15th spot will see a lot of time in a suit and minimal active games, let alone minutes.

    No I don't even follow the Spurs, I am just here for years for the of it . I know what they will do, just get sick of the Spurs working out or looking at threads so I have to laugh some. I know what you mean though, that is exactly what will happen, peace.

    Fwiw there are many on here who share the way you feel.
    I do hope Nunnally comes to camp here.
    In some ways he reminds me of Green.

    True, but he is still D League fodder. He needs to take the next big step to show he belongs with the big boys, the NBA.
    I haven't heard yet the results of his other workouts or whether he is coming to camp here.

    Who knows, they are working out guys every single day it seems with no word after they do it.

    Was it you who commented that with Nunnally maybe they were looking for lightning in a bottle?
    If so, great observation!

    He is 6' 6-7" and is considered a SF, he was also one of the pleasant surprises when he played for the Heats summer league team.

    I did not say that, someone else did. I don't really know much about the guy.

    I think it is highly doubtful that the Spurs fill that last spot with anyone if their past seasons are any indication. They usually have one ten day player after another throughout the season.
    But if this guy goes to their camp, IMHO he just might end up on their team, if and only if he shows that Bruce Bowen type defensive intensity and 3pt shooting, that he prides himself on.

    I think they fill the last spot with a non or partially guaranteed contract.

    The Memphis Grizzlies, who plucked Springfield Armor big man Willie Reed from the NBADL late last season, are looking to uncover yet another gem. The team has extended a training camp invite out to Nunnally.
    So, to sum up, Nunnaly has worked out Spurs and Suns, he will still work out for teams like Jazz and Pelicans and he has already received one training camp invite by Memphis.

    But the question is, will the Spurs invite him to training camp?
    I suppose it is not known yet.
    And maybe won't be known until the 30th.

    They do this sometimes, and it could be Nunnally. That player rarely lasts past the guarantee date, though. After that, they go with 10 or 20 day tryouts.
