    Derrick Zimmerman for Mississipi State, point guard with some good potential. Drafted by GS warriors in 2nd round last year

    Ok, I guess we don't trust Reece Gaines potential, wasn't he drafted higher last year than this guy?

    I don't know anything about him but I'm assuming he will be a practice PG like Mike Wilks.

    This is, pretty clearly, a way to fill out the training camp roster. There are ALWAYS mutliple invitees to camp that don't make the team. I'm guessing this is a non-guaranteed deal contingent upon him making the team.

    Clearly, he's the next Steve Francis.

    Lol, I was thinking Francis clone, at least in athleticism. That dunk looks eerily similar.
