* Poor scouting, inability to identify even one player who they think is worth adding.
* Didn't know they could add another, or forgot to do so. (The opportunity has passed.)
* Too cheap to take a shot at adding someone.
The thing is, I did not know of Eugene prior to very late in the draft process and pretty much bypassed him. In retrospect, that was a real nice job of scouting. I never saw much in the other two way guy. I liked the Feron Hunt signing and Carlik Jones has proven to be a good G-league player.
I also like EJ Onu signing. He is a multiyear prospect at best. He hardly got any playing time with our G-league. He is now on the Memphis team and had 17 points, 8 rebounds and 6 blocks last night. G-League Stats are tough to make much out of, but I am surprised he hardly played with the Legends. Nate Hinton has been putting up some pretty decent stats as well in the G-league recently.
