The only game I can see him getting any PT in is the Raptors game....
Went to a D-League game in Frisco and saw him play against the Texas Legends. I don't remember too much about him on the defensive end, but he definitely has an NBA ready offensive game and is 100% a better player at this point in their careers than Udoka.

Summit League has hit the big time! George Hill of IUPUI and Larry Owens of ORU high-fiving at timeout. http://yfrog.com/h8yrgsrj

Got my first look at newest Spurs player Larry Owens a few minutes ago at the AT&T Center. www.SpursNation.com http://twitpic.com/3qquiy
Really looks like a nice signing - he is seemingly more mature than many in the Dleague and has been impressive 2 years in a row there.
Yeahh I hope he gets a few trash minutes. I think he can prove that he deserves a place on the team if he's given a chance. Won't get rotation minutes this year, but trades happen, signing happen, and there's always future years.
2.09 of Larry
splitter hahahahha
he kind of looked like mini-Mahinmi
There's NO WAY he's 6'7". He looked only slightly taller than George when they were talking during a dead ball, maybe 6'5". Let the complaining begin.
He's legit. His wingspan is ridiculous as well...

Get this guy to whataburger. And yeah, he looks like a mini mahinmi and looked pretty confident.
what was his +/- for the denver game?
+/- 0
He was ok. Hope he enjoys the 9 days he has left with the team.
Dude, you are wrong about literally everything when it comes to player evals. It is mind blowing how someone can watch something and see things the way you do.
Yeah, so is George's. Doesn't make him 6'7", either.
The only measurements I trust as gospel are from the NBA pre-draft camp.
I'm telling you, he looked only a little taller than George, and noticably shorter (1"-2") than RJ. He is NOT 6'7".
It's not tough to pick this up on a floor level camera shot during a dead ball.Dude, you are wrong about literally everything when it comes to player evals. It is mind blowing how someone can watch something and see things the way you do.
Well even if he isn't 6'7, he is closer 6'7 than any of the other players the Spurs have signed in the past.
He looked pretty close to RJ to me. But my seats could be too far away i suppose.
never said that....and it looks like JO has long arms as well

Even taking the angle into account... if Hill is 6'3", Owens is clearly 3 inches taller. Compare the shoulders.
The fact that Owens is significantly less bulky than the rest of the squad he was on the floor with probably contributes to the perception he's shorter. It's also worth pointing out that a sound defensive position is lower to the ground, and he was clearly trying to demonstrate to Pop that he was a defender.
When he tried to drive through the paint right at the end of the 4th, I didn't at all get the impression he looked undersized against JR Smith (and was pretty impressed with his explosiveness/handle even if the play didn't work). Probably won't be with us long, but I liked what I saw in the few odd minutes I watched him.
Thank the ing gods no one has tried to make an evaluation on him with his 2 minutes of play
