I like Risacher and I think he is a legit #1 pick and could be another Brandon Ingram or Brandon Miller
But sometimes he reminds me of Yi Jianlian. Both came from a weak leagues with poor competition, both are known for being lanky with sneaky athleticism and good shooters with no ball handling or play making skills
How do we know that Risacher won't end up like Yi?

If we knew with certainty what any of these guys would end up like it would be so much easier

Even in a bad draft, he isn't a top-5 candidate. Let alone #1.

Do Spurs have an interest in Sarr ?

No to Sarr. His camp has reportedly let it be known they want him to be the #1 option.
So regardless of whether he plays C or PF he will never be the #1 option for us.
We have Wemby and Sochan as starting bigs, we're good.
Also, Wemby's agency and Sarr's are reportedly not on good terms so the fit is wonky on and off the court. Sarr took exception to Wemby saying Risarcher is the best french prospect in the draft.
Anyone we get must accept the pecking order.
We are targeting bigs but backup, and priorities are 1 and 3 starters. Floor spacers who can defend, too.

I asked the Spurs board who own picks 4 & 8 the following question to gauge if there was any interest in trading up.Whole Truth wrote:

She went on to say she has interest in Knecht but he's projected top 3. They're hoping he falls to 4.

I said I'm intrigued by Knecht as an older more experienced shooter who any team can slot right in and he'd fill his role. But at 8 not 4, if at all. Not sure if his limitations merit the slot given I doubt we start two rookies to begin with and the possible trades that can happen to fill either 1 or 3 starting spots.

Sorry, I took it as though you had interest in trading up for him or hoped he'd fall. Bad assumption on my part.

No worries, just clarifying, thanks *thumbs up*
Now there's this, though:
What?!

If NO's were willing to trade Herb to Atlanta. He would look very good in SA.
1st team defense, 40% shooting, 12m/3yr value contract. I could see Pop liking this from what Rusty was saying.
Or did Wemby & Sarr mend ?
