    I guess Lowry won't be returning this season. I would take Boykins over Fortson as a backup

    Boykins may be short (VERY SHORT) but the dude is a straight up baller. (At least he was last time I saw him play, hopefully he has still got some game left.)

    fallenphoenix, its a reference to another thread, its a joke. Lighten up.

    One of my favourite ballers, looooooove this signing. Sad for Fortson though, he could've developed into a solid member of this team.

    We've got a full month to go. Boykins is here for 20 days if he gets reupped.

    Good insurance. I think Lowry will come back around the 16th or so, confident he'll get some game action ahead of the playoffs.

    Cool. Like Fortson's heart, but he just wasn't cutting it.
