Ah yes so true. For Lip Luke will always be the one who got away.
Atlanta is this year's Miami. Sign some guys to basically 1 year prove it deals and go from there. That could be a landing spot for Bazz.
Re: Final Wolves Free Agent Additions
I was just getting over missing out on Afflalo. Now I have to face the reality that Luke Babbit has found someone else and won't be coming here. Some day soon I'll wake up and Cole won't be here anymore. When that day comes, I don't think I can go on.

Still hoping we get Mike Dunleavy somehow.

"Georges-Hunt another camp deal for Wolves, who have their eyes on established vets for final three roster spots"
MGH is a somewhat interesting player. I dug a bit on him when the Magic waived him and then then watched a bit more highlights when I saw this tweet today. He had a pretty nice season in the D-league. He may be a late bloomer as a shooter. His last year of college he shot .342 from 3 but jumped way up in FT percentage and that has continued up in 40+ games in the d-league. He shot 39% from 3 in the D-league and shot 88% from the FT line and then hit 9/10 in his limited time with the Magic. His first 2 years in college he shot under 70% from the line so that's pretty impressive.
His last year of college he played some PG so he has some decent ball handling and passing skills. Watching him I doubt he will be doing a whole lot of that but he can at least dribble the ball enough to not be limited to just standing around shooting. He is not particularly quick or explosive but is smooth and strong. He has plenty of length to guard perimeter players and looks physically like a grown man. He probably will be another guy that heads to the D-league as an affiliate player but he is a guy that's experienced the pro game and done well. I wouldn't be shocked to see a guy like him stick if he shows out. He may also never play in the NBA again but I like taking some shots at finding a player of guys like him and Anthony Brown and both have showed some signs of being 3 point shooters.
Edit:
MGH was also was pretty good for Orlando in the Summer league this year.

Re: Final Wolves Free Agent Additions
With some more 2-way signings including A. Payne to Orlando and the latest Alex Poythress to the Pacers there are only 10 spots left for those signings. I'd guess the Wolves are looking for guys that would sign one of those deals but they could wait and is it on a player another team lets go before the season starts etc.

Has Bogut landed anywhere? I would have thought he'd be snapped up

Nope he is available. I'd bet all he will get is the vet min so he is probably just waiting for the best opportunity. True Centers aren't exactly in high demand right now.

I've thought about Bogut. I wouldn't mind signing him. Filling our last three roster spots with Bazz, Morrow and Bogut would work for me.
