No one.  Given that Pressey and Babb are under contract and likely will be cut, I can't imagine anyone really having a shot on doing anything on the summer league team that will possibly get him on to the team in the fall unless DA makes some mega trade in the next couple of weeks.

Holmes was ranked highly by some scouts. I'm surprised he didn't get drafted.

I could honestly see him being the "swing" player that CBS is looking for. Not a star, but an aggressive, versatile forward who can defend multiple positions, make hustle plays, and hit the corner three.

I don't think we are a team with Sleepers,   I expect Young and Smart to show they belong in the NBA.   I expect Rozier, Hunter and Mickey to try to show they belong.   I expect all these guys to play well.   Holmes is not really a sleeper, Rollie.  He was viewed as having first round talent by some boards.   People in the know, knew about him.

Holmes.  I hope he plays well, signs with the Celtics and eventually replaces Sullen Sully.

It's worth keeping an eye on him.

Jonathan Holmes, baby!

Really surprised that he want drafted (though, part of it is his fault since he cancelled his workouts). He's way to versatile to not even be getting a look. Solid skills on both ends, great motor. Hope he flourishes and get a camp invite. I'd have him on the roster over Pressey and Babb anyday.

No one can prove themselves if the coach lets the guards shoot three pointers at will.  The coach should have a limit...no more than 3-4 threes per player/game.  More than that they sit out for a game.  Last year, it was a joke with all the 3 pointers launched.

So if he's not a sleeper, what is he? A lock to be on the roster?
