Marcus Hayes/Philadelphia Daily News on Rob Kurz:
Yesterday wasn’t going to keep Kurz in the NBA, but that April night in Salt Lake City might.
“Rob is a ‘big’ who can shoot the ball. I think there’s always a premium on that,” Sixers president/general manager Ed Stefanski said. “We’re looking to fill out the roster from a depth standpoint, so he’d be a guy who’d fight for one of those positions. Bigs who can make shots have a spot in this league.”

Kurz, a 6-9 forward who starred at Penn Charter, is auditioning this week and next at summer leagues here and Las Vegas. Here, he is playing on the Sixers/Nets combined unit. In Vegas next week, he will be with the Timberwolves.
