spurs over luxcury tax now so he is a NO
Still looking for that long three? Word is that Casey wants him out, thats why he's not getting any PT in the preseason games even though his option has to be decided upon at the end of this month.
I know that the Spurs were hoping he'd fall during the draft to them.

Who is Ebi?
Ebi?
And who is Casey?

A quote from the article...
Ndudi Ebi—he’s not getting any time in the preseason. Will he be waived and the Wolves just bite the bullet on his contract?
Ndubi Ebi, a raw, long, super athlete that drafted by TWolves this summer ? He's 6.8 with 7+ wingspan, CMIIW.
Bet that dude looks weird with those dimensions. Arms must almost drag the ground.
I think Tayshaun Prince is the same way. Oliver Miller was when he played. Well, I guess Miller still is. His arms probably didn't shrink when he retired.
The Spurs were interested in Ebi before. I guess if he's waived they would take a look.
The Spurs were real high on this guy, pre-draft, allegedly.
Not this summer. He was drafted a couple of years ago.
More like 'sign and send to Austin'...
WTF? Just looked at his stat sheet on the NBA web site. He only played two games last year, but averaged 13.5p/8r in 27 minutes per game. How can you only play him two games if he can put up those numbers?
FG% for last year was .524 and FT% was .556
Sign him up. He's a perfect fit.
One of those was when he scored 18 points against the Spurs in the final game last year. The Wolves were already eliminated and the Spurs were staying healthy for Denver. Can you say extended garbage time?
It was an NBA regular season game, wasn't it?
He's 21, and they're ready to give up on him?
Have you seen Jason Maxiell? He's 6-6 and has a 7-3 wingspan.

It was about as close to an exhibition game as you can get, but you are welcome to start offering draft picks for him. Seriousy, the reason they need to get rid of him is because they can't put him on an NBDL team, so they have to give him a roster spot or cut him. I'm not sure what the complaint is about him otherwise, but I've never heard the Timberwolves' front office accused of being terribly smart.
Spurs wanted him. He's said to be aloof and reportedly has a bad worth ethic. With the players that the Wolves have had over the years, this is a pretty bright red flag. I don't think players like Michael Olowokandi or Sam Cassell are exactly gym rats.
Besides, Holt doesn't sound like he wants to spend the money on a 14th or 15th man.
Ebi was widely reguarded as the best prep player after LeBron James. He was reruited by every single big-time college program, choosing Arizona over Duke, Texas, Kansas and UNC.
I've seen him play a million times, mostly via video. He's a quality prospect, but is no where near a player the Spurs would play consistantly.
He needs to go to a team thaat's just awful, develop with no pressure and then cash in after a 2/3 year contract.
He needs a minimum of 25 minutes a game for a minimum of two years before he's rotation quality on a Championship calibur team.
I can't comment on his work ethic or practice habits, but he always wanted to guard the best player. He doesn't mind playing defense or hitting the boards. He's skinny, or at least undersized, but he's got Lamar Odom skills (minus maybe passing), but will play far better defense.
In time... something most teams cannot give him.
Also, he's been in the League for two years already, so the NBADL is out of the question unless he's willing (fat chance)... He's a elite prospect who knows he can be great. I doubt he signs for the NBADL.
If I'm him, I go to Charlotte.
Spurs roster is filled up. Sean Marks will have to be a reserve as it stands right now. So don't be looking for any more additions
Word is that Casey wants him out
Sounds like "our" kind of player
