Dell Demps also said he is in the process of finalizing the contract of John Salmons. Demps said they are dotting 'i's and crossing 't's.

Demps said Eric Gordon, Jrue Holiday and Ryan Anderson appear to be healthy. Players have been working out in different parts of country

Given the choice to upgrade C or SF decision, Demps said they chose C and signed Omer Asik. He called Asik a top 4 center in NBA.

Demps said he is looking forward to see Russ Smith and Austin Rivers in training camp. He said he has been hearing good things about Rivers

Other notes,

- Mentioned Tyreke first when talking about SF, then Salmons and then said Darius and Babbit can compete for minutes.

- Gordon came out to summer league to support the team on his own and is in great shape. I thought this was a notable mention because normally Gordon gets mentioned as an after thought if at all.

- Ryan is back on the court running and shooting.
