Training camp invitees: Courtney Sims and Lukasz Obrzut
Quote:
|
Two big men, Courtney Sims (Michigan) and Lukasz Obrzut (Kentucky) are expected to be added to the training camp roster. Bird said one other addition was possible but declined to identify the player because he was not yet under contract.

The article also mentions that Travis Diener is fully-recovered from his broken hand, and that Daniels, while supposedly with no health issues, will skip practices just like Jermaine O'Neal last year.
Sims is 6'11" 230, and went undrafted this year out of Michigan. He'll turn 24 before the season starts. http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=183
Obrzut is 7'1" 265 out of Kentucky, and is 25 years old. He averaged 8 mpg as a Senior.

I say just let them sleep until opening tipoff....We absolutely cannot afford to have either of them miss more than 10 gms this season...but then again I know that's asking too much so I'll settle for 30.....

Re: Training camp invitees: Courtney Sims and Lukasz Obrzut
Just a bit of info on Sims:
Quote:
|
"He's a confident shooter and he's mobile and I think that's positive," he said. "Reality is we have 14 guys signed to contracts and if we were to sign a 15th guy it would have to be someone that's going to be in the rotation."
