AD better watch his back, Sacre is coming for his starting position and be the face of the Pelicans
Might make the team on his bench cheerleading alone

The end of an era. He's up there with Ronny Turiaf as one of the GOAT Laker cheerleaders.
Good luck to him. Seemed like a likable guy.

Oh good. I've been hopeful he'd find another team. I'll miss the shark dance. Best of luck, Rob!

I wish him the best wherever he ends up. It's worth noting this is a training camp invite - not a signing.

If it doesn't work out Bourbon Street is always looking for new talent.

For a guy with such limited skills he sure stuck around a long time on an NBA roster. That just speaks to what a good teammate he was and what he brought to game day in terms of enthusiasm. Too bad he didn't have more to offer, because he was actually a really good laker.
He won't make the pels roster and will land overseas somewhere, but great dude....thx for the effort.

Ryan Kelly and Robert Sacre will do very good in China IMO, let's see if they get a contract offer in 1 of the China leagues.

Not really. There have been others that are equally bad but usually they are surrounded by quality starters and subs so they never get off the bench. _________________ “When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.”

Smrek, Nevitt, Samaki Walker, Travis Knight, Gudmundsson...
