Skeen or matt howard would be nice
Greg Smith from Fresno State sounds intriguing enough to get a minicamp invite.

Still impressive to win defensive player of the year.
USC’s Marcus Simmons named Pac-10 DPOY
March 7th, 2011, 11:41 am · 3 Comments · posted by Michael Lev, staff writer
The Pac-10 recognized the top stopper on the conference’s best defensive team by naming USC’s Marcus Simmons its Defensive Player of the Year.
Simmons’ teammate, Nikola Vucevic, made first-team All-Pac-10.
Arizona’s Derrick Williams beat out Vucevic for Pac-10 Player of the Year. Sean Miller of the first-place Wildcats was named Coach of the Year.
Washington’s Matthew Bryan-Amaning was named Most Improved Player. Cal’s Allen Crabbe was named Freshman of the Year.
Crabbe will get a heavy dose of Simmons on Thursday when the Trojans and Golden Bears meet in the Pac-10 Tournament quarterfinals.
Simmons, a 6-6 senior guard, helped the Trojans allow a league-low 62.9 points per game. He held several All-Pac-10 performers below their shooting averages, including Washington State’s Klay Thompson (12 of 35, .343), Stanford’s Jeremy Green (5 of 22, .228), UCLA’s Tyler Honeycutt (6 of 16, .375) and Washington’s Isaiah Thomas (8 of 20, .400).
Simmons is a great defender but in the games I've seen his offense looks pretty brutal.
Demetri McCamey would probably be a good one to bring in.
Pittsburgh' Brad Wanamaker will be at the camp:

Wanamaker will attend minicamps next week with the Hawks and the Spurs, according to his agent, Happy Walters.
is there a limit on signing undrafted FA's?
It looks like he will be at Hawks' camp:

Syracuse's Rick Jackson says 'no' to Spurs
After not getting drafted in the 2011 NBA Draft, Syracuse's Rick Jackson was invited by the San Antonio Spurs to attend their upcoming mini-camp.
However, according to his father, Jackson said no to the Spurs' invite and further said San Antonio should have drafted him:
But Jackson will turn that offer down, his father, Rick Jackson Sr., said in a phone interview Friday.
"(Rick) said the Spurs had the 59th pick," Jackson Sr. said. "They should have picked him then."
Jackson was quite vocal on Twitter about not getting selected in the draft. He ranted throughout the draft and when it was apparent he was not going to hear his name called, he said he will make every team who passed on him pay.

LOL LOL LOL
^ his at ude explains why he went undrafted.....good luck to him finding a team....
all 30 teams passed on him...so is he going to make them all pay by not playing for them....wow that will show them Ricky...
what a fool he and his father have shown to be. The Spurs are one of the two best franchises over the last decade plus. He could have played for a HOF coach, with a HOF PF, a HOF SG, and a future HOF PG. Yet he lets his ego get in the way......well his father's ego gets in the way. As Mr. T used to say.....I pity the fool.
BTW, I dont want Jackson anyway. I like the Cuse, but Jax is undersized. IMO, he should go to the Knicks. They can definitely use his rebounding and defense.
I'm sure the Spurs are crushed.
lol can't get drafted in a draft.
So if every team that passed on him is going to pay, then who will he play for?
