If this isn't the scenario to call up and take a look at Metu, then one doesn't exist; so why was he given a roster spot for 2 seasons to begin with? What did they expect from him and why has random filler like Eubanks inexplicably been ahead of him since the jump?
He's probably nothing, but despite the questionable feel, he's athletic and relatively skilled. Might as well take a look now and be certain of what they have before potentially cutting the chord in the off season.
People keep being surprised when teams like the Heat find diamonds in the rough, but the thing is, they actually give them an opportunity (even when healthy, ahead of established, big contract types).
