still no roster updates on the RealGM site, making the Spurs one of the very few teams without at least a few players listed.
Will there be any roster released before they play their first game on Friday?
If the Spurs plan to keep Beno he must play in the Summer League

Yeah, the Spurs always release their roster before summer league starts. This season they are late in releasing their roster. They usually release it four or five days before they start.
I expect the roster to be released tonight or at the latest tomorrow night.
I just recently got NBA TV and I'm not familiar with their coverage of the Summer Leagues. They don't broadcast them live generally, do they? The games are usually recorded and played later, right? I heard that 4 of their 5 games will be on NBA TV, but how long will I have to wait to watch them?
I'm not sure because it's completely different this season. In the past, they were broadcast a few days later to a week later, but this year they are supposed to have some live TV broadcasts, live webcasts, etc. So I guess we have to wait for the details.
Well it looks like the details are already out.

The games with the * are tape delay. The rest are live.
The Spurs only have one Vegas Summer League Game broadcast on regular NBAtv. It's the Boston game next Monday afternoon.
I can't find any damn thing on the rosters and the games start tomorrow!
What's the deal?
It looks like we will find out the Spurs summer league roster at 1:00pm tomorrow when they step on the court in Las Vegas.
Any idea if the NBA will archive webcasts so we can watch them later?
I just posted the roster in another thread, but here you go.

Thanks Kori!
I'm geeked about seeing Butler, White, and Williams get some legitimat PT...albiet mostly against guys competing for 15th roster spots.
Actually most of the top rookies are playing in the Las Vegas league, so the compe ion is good. Oden, Durant, etc are all playing (though the Spurs don't play Por/Sea).
Thanks Kori!

Kori, is this his drafted height and weight, or current measurements. I remember reading somewhere that he had grown and was now closer to 6'10". It will also be interesting to see if he has learned anything over the last year.
We should have a vBookie for how many points Butler averages in the Summer League.
I always thought he was at least 6'9 too - on the press release they may have just used the height/weight from the draft.
Holy crap, look at this summer league team!!!

That team can make the playoffs in the east!
Don Newman's and R.C.'s script for calling this year's summer league prospects:
"Hi _________________, hey we are getting the old bunch back together again. Are you up for a free trip to Vegas?"
What's crazy is that you're absolutely right.
How are they going to find playing time for all these guys in the next couple years?
Good night, they're LOADED with young talent!
Side Note: Rudy Fernandez isn't even on there....one more starting calibur player.
Rediculous.
Not to pat myself on the back too much, but hey, looks like I was right.
