Hey I cringed every time Danny dribbles the ball, same thing with Bruce. I sincerely hope Spurs coaching staff can turn this kid around. He has so much upside. He’s very smart just reading his blogs. I hope it translates to bball IQ.
oo, a Hostel

If Spurs created Bruce Bowen, they certainly can re-create Josh Huestis.
A similar player to Huestis was Shane Battier. Who used his size and smarts to frustrate his opponents. I don't recall Battier having any one elite skill.
Bruce couldn’t dribble nor pass said Pops on an interview when asked to compare Bruce to Kawhitter. Bruce was a true lockdown defender than Battier. Huestis is more athletic than any Bruce, Danny and Battier combined. Can’t wait to see Spurs coaching staff to unleash this kid’s potential.
Danny Green is a much better player inside the arc than Huestis. Let that sink in.
Huestis
Can’t
ing
Shoot
If he puts the ball up from 10 feet, it’s coming back out. He’s ing terrible. You LITERALLY can ignore him on offense. Even his off ball movement is rated poor. At almost 27, you really have to stop talking about potential. He is what he is. Danny Green was 23 when he got here, and was already an above average 3 point shooter.
Bruce Bowen shot .363 from the field before the Spurs picked him up. He was already 30 years old and had played 7 years in the NBA.
Bruce Bowen also shot .362 FROM THREE POINT LAND before he became a Spur on over 500 attempts. If Huestis had shown ANY ability to shoot AT ALL, I wouldn't be so down on him. If he could stand in the corner like Bruce and snipe away, he could add real value. Unfortunately, he couldn't hit water if he fell out of a ing boat.

Better than Eubanks tbh
I like Roberson , OKC like Roberson for what ........DEFENSE! Huestis hopefully can bring that trait to the table in aces!
Kawhi Leonard shot .291 from 3 point range when left college.
We already know that Heustis can't shoot.... that doesn't mean he can't learn how to shoot under Chip.
Beside Spurs are in DIRE need for a defense stopper of his size.
He’s going to back up the starters and play limited minutes. Do not understand the obsession with his three point percentage. If no one guards him, he should be able get more offensive rebounds.
and Forbes..
I like Roberson, and he can do enough inside of the 3 point line to stay on the floor, AND he is the same age as Huestis, but much more developed. OKC had both, and they kept Roberson.
His best case is a two way contract out of camp. That means he can do minimal damage, only being able to spend 45 days with the big club. Oh, and guarding someone is different than blocking them out and keeping them off of the glass. They'll do that.
You also misunderstood me. The Spurs like 3 point shooters because they space the floor, but that's not his issue. He has no jumper at all. Not from 15 feet. Not from 10 feet. Not from 5 feet. He's never made an NBA FG between 10-16 feet. Never. He shoots 10% from 3-10 feet.

For a system like the Spurs, he could be a great fit. Spurs need a good defensive player at the 3. If all he ever does is camp on offense at the corner and hits 3's, then he'll be good enough.

Ya I think ppl are higher on him than Pondexter it seems cuz of his youth and D
Apparently, you can't ing read any better than he can shoot. It's not just his 3 pointer that's broken.

Well what about Wahsburn? He average 5 points a game in the G-league. You think he can shoot better?
Training camp fodder, and don't care about or like him, either. You need roughly 20 bodies there to run your drills with proper rest in between.
It's funny that you compare one non-NBA caliber player to another, though. Appropriate.
He actually can shoot better than Huestis, but he's as averse to offense as Anderson was.
Upgrade over Ginose, tbh.
I think Spurs can mold'em!!
Can’t be worse than .3 from the line Roberson
