They already have Fox and Castle. Are they packaging those 2 for something better? What's the plan?

Fox plus Castle for Devin Booker maybe

I still remember whern he mocked your pick, he said something like “a team that can’t shoot just drafted a player that can’t shoot.

He was right too lol

The overuse of "generational" is kind of annoying. I've heard at least 5-7 guys in the league right now described as generational. You can't have two dozen "generational" talents in a span of only a few decades lol.

Wemby is a generational talent.
Someone who looks like he will change the game forever and just about impossible to contain.

Speaking of Spurs I fully expect them to trade pick 14

Agree on Wemby. Before that, you'd probably have to go back to LeBron for a draft day generational talent.

SAS fans, why did you guys pick a guard? Was he just the best player or was there a need? I think you guys have some great guards.

The older low iq gen guards are getting the boot.

It's amazing going from Tre Jones, Blake Wesley and Malaki Branham to De'Aaron Fox, Steph Castle, and Dylan Harper

As someone who grew up in Maine and often passed right through Cooper’s tiny hometown, that was such a cool moment.

Never happen. The Spurs aren't stupid and Ishbia sure as hell isn't that smart.

You can never have enough guard play. The guards they do have need to improve their shooting range and percentages.

With Wemby the Spurs will get another giant big man to play along side him.

Got a feeling Philly will pass on Ace Bailey

I've said it a bunch of times: he is easily the 2nd best prospect in the draft and it isn't close. Spurs should take BPA period. Plus I see no downside in having multiple big combo guard playmakers
