[QUOTE="Techster, post: 807536, member: 360"] Workouts mean there is interest. There's more to a position than whether or not a player will be a starter. There's bench depth, ability to help push starters in practice, and build a competitive system with their G League teams. Teams are not flying kids out for workouts because for the heck of it. It's not to say it means those teams want to sign Jose eventually, that's why they bring in other players for workouts and go through a rigorous process with all of their prospects. It just means they have someone on their radar that could be of interest for various reasons down the road. Whether is a kid is a "local" kid or not is not factor...otherwise Atlanta Hawks and the Atlanta Falcons would bring in GT players all the time for workouts...and that hasn't happened too much over the last decade. Kids are brought because teams want to put their eyes on players first hand and grade them in person. The end game is making an NBA roster. The Summer League is a great avenue towards making an NBA roster. It's a better showcase for players like Jose than 2-3 day camp like the one he just finished. It's where player like Anthony Morrow and Marcus Georges Hunt earned their spot. Granted they ran out of eligibility and didn't have the fall back that Jose has, but both probably do not make the roster without their performances in the Summer League. Therein lies the conundrum for Jose. There's no return to college if he opts to take his shot in the Summer League. [/QUOTE]
