Although most training camp lineups are already filled by now, there are still some players who are hoping to receive an invite to get a shot at making a roster spot. That includes players who were not selected in recent drafts, and even veterans looking for another chance to showcase their talents at the highest level.
One of them is Beno Udrih, who remains a free agent despite fully recovering from the right knee injury he suffered last season. He is reportedly awaiting by the phone, to see if any team is in need of a proven point guard that can provide them with quality minutes night in and night out.

The Slovenian international is a 13-year NBA veteran who has suited up for eight different franchises. He has a wealth of experience under his belt, including 43 playoff games, and was also part of the 2005 and 2007 championship-winning squads of the San Antonio Spurs. He has solid career averages of 8.4 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 3.4 assists in 21.9 minutes per game.
Should Beno Udrih get the opportunity he's been waiting for, he can serve as a veteran locker room leader and mentor to young players, which every team needs. For now, it's a waiting game for him, and he knows that are only a few days left before he is forced to look for job openings elsewhere.
