All three of the training camp crew are potential wings. Bibbs is 6'6" and 211 pounds. King is 6'7" and 225 pounds, while Roberson is 6'6" and 220 pounds. Roberson is 22 years old and Bibbs and King are 23 years of age.
Training camp signees can always surprise, but it seems doubtful that this trio will be much more than practice opponents for the normal-rotation guys. We will know in a few weeks.
