    He was looking really good in training camp and summer league last year before he got injured.

    They settled with him, and cut him, right?

    Is he healthy and available? He is a really quick 6'6" SG right?

    quick, no. dion's a bulldog type player who does enjoy taking big shots. whether he is even healthy or not, though, i have no idea.

    We have nothing to lose by inviting Glover to training camp. Agree with DaDakota.

    i'm sure he'll get an invite to camp. he made the team last year but had to be cut due to a season ending injury.

    He didn't necessarily make the team, it was that the CBA prohibits you from cutting someone while they are injured. I heard thats the reason they cut Chuck at the beginning and kept dion. i don't know if its true but thats what i heard.

    While it may be true that you can't cut a player while they are injured, you do have to be on the team in order to be cut which he was. So he had to have made the team at some point. My point being that if they thought he could make the team when healthy I'm sure they will give him another look this summer now that he isn't injured and since we really need help at the 2.

    Depth is always a good thing, Dion aint quick but off the bench he can provide a lift. Just so long as he takes the minimum and doesnt get in the way of us signing some impact players Im all for him comin back.
