    According to Wikipedia:

    He was later selected in the sixth round (121st pick overall) of the 1985 NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Clippers

    Not much of a scorer going by his D-League stats. So they're hoping for an energy guy?

    Another LA D-Fender. Hmmm?

    Are they a threat to RGV or something?

    Looks like a decent defender but he's another undersized power forward.

    He's listed as a forward.

    6'9 with a 7'2 wingspan.

    Pretty hand shot blocker.

    Played in Korea during the lockout i think?

    Spurs have had him in this season and gave him 15 minutes across 3 games.
    Pretty handy 'practice guy' who brings energy.

    10-day contracts don't cost anything really - so why not take a look??



    [for those whinging about Marcus Morris not getting time, MM is slated as a SF in our coaches minds, this bloke a PF - and he might not get any time either]

    No Lowry, no Martin, Dragic and Camby are big question marks... I'll take whoever the hell I can get right now.

    I dont see why anyone really cares. Obviously he's a post player, and the Rockets have another roster spot or two left. Who cares. Usually when they bring someone up, they usually have something to prove.

    They need bodies for practice, and it looks like Parsons & Lee are going to have to play heavy minutes at the PG spot. You should get your wish and Morris should be playing heavy minutes tomm night.

    Rockets have empty roster slots, may as well fill them.
