Any undrafted players of interest for Summer League or the Stars? Jock Londale or Brandon McCoy or Thomas Welch.

Gary Clark, Kenrich Williams, and Ismael Sanogo are the three I'm interested in (Newman already got a 2 way with the Lakers and would take the same spot as Grayson anyways).
 
My vote is for Deng Adel. Athlete, length, defensive minded and has shooting touch. Development staff could help him improve his shoot. He could evolve into a small ball 4 and can play the 3 right now. And has a Louisville connection with Donovan.

One of the biggest storylines heading into this season from an Australian perspective without a doubt surrounds the performance of Louisville junior Deng Adel. The Australian, who has taken an incredible journey en route to playing in Louisville, was one of the best scorers and all-round players for the Cardinals last season, and he's only going to get better.

After finishing the season with averages of 12 points and 4 rebounds, including 16 points and 4 rebounds over the final six games of the season, Adel tested the waters of the NBA draft during the off-season but made the decision to pull out before the deadline and go back to school for at least one more year.

"I didn't want to rush anything," Adel said of his decision. "I didn't want to force myself out there. It was a stacked draft this year and a lot of players ended up not being drafted. For me, there was no point in really risking it."

Jock Landale -- named to the USBWA's preseason watch list for the Oscar Robertson Trophy (the trophy presented annually to the national player of the year), Adel may be one of only a few positive lights for Louisville after they were rocked by a huge scandal in September that saw their coach Rick Pitino forced to step down.

Adel has the length and athleticism to get to the basket on a consistent basis, and the shooting touch to make him dangerous from the charity stripe. He's also a good three-point shooter and a good multi-positional defensive player. If Adel has a productive season, there's no reason why he can't play himself into being a first-round draft pick.
 
Alkins, Duval, or Kenrich Williams seem like good bets
 
One thing to consider, our FO might have seen a player they like in that vet work out a couple weeks ago. They might want a more mature, seasoned guy than an undrafted or 2md rounder.

We obviously want guys who are ready now by looking at the Grayson pick.
