We're not using a top10 pick to draft another center.
I think Edey workout was just in case if he drops to #35.
No Clingan?

4th pick: Castle/Cody Williams
8th pick: Saluan/Carter
Not mentioned but it does say that San Antonio doesn’t appear to be a landing spot
Yeah I think the Edey interest would be more of a 2nd Round thing
It said San Antonio is not interested in centers.
I believe Dyson Daniels was also in that workout.
If Castle and Carter were at the workout together, I’d bet that one of (or all of) Ja’Kobe Walter, Dillon Jones and Bub Carrington were there too.

This is the article where several Spurs’ workouts are mentioned. Some of the more noteworthy names:
Risacher - slated to work out for SA on Friday
Sheppard - worked out for SA last week (Givony claims SA could be interested in moving up to 3 to grab him)
Castle and Devin Carter - worked out against each other in SA last week
Dillingham - working out for SA today
Cody Williams - worked out for SA
Topic - can’t work out with his injury, but is in the U.S. and will visit SA
Salaun - apparently sprained his ankle during his workout in SA this past weekend, could influence his scheduled workouts
For what it’s worth, in the mock draft of the same article they have Castle being the pick at 4 and Dillingham being #8. That’s one of my top 3 preferred combos…can’t wait for the Spurs to on it and go with Topic/Salaun![]()
Based on the latest ESPN mock, the Spurs’ big board appears to be:
1. Risacher
2. Sarr
3. Sheppard
4. Castle
5. Dillingham
6. Knecht
Based on draft ranges the target at 4 is Zacch - Sheppard - Castle/Knecht. Knecht is a top tier talent around Wemby like it or not.
Zach Edey, C, Purdue | Age: 22.0
Edey, ranked No. 16 in ESPN's Top 100, is drawing interest from teams that are drafting in front and behind Miami, with every team in the back half of the lottery after San Antonio said to be in the market for a center.
Uh I don’t think it says that anywhere in the article
It’s called reading between the lines.![]()
Moving up one spot to get Reed? Now that’s interesting…
Givony’s been pitching the 1 for 4+8 all along, right? People assumed it was for Risacher, but what if it was for Reed?
After San Antonio.
I think it’s called you projecting your own fantasy into reality. We get that you want Risacher. Come back here in a few years when he doesn’t become the star you think he will be.
It doesn’t even mention any interest between Sarr and the Spurs so your board is speculation nothing to do with the article
It said if he drops to 4.
You’re right, my bad. Sarr wasn’t mentioned. It should be:
1. Risacher
2. Sheppard
3. Castle
4. Dillingham
5. Knecht
I never said anywhere that I think Risacher would be a star. I do think he’s a great fit on the current roster though.
I love the idea of moving up a spot to grab Sheppard at 3, but I’m just not sure what would make sense for both sides. The whole reason Houston would want to move that pick is because they’re focused on grabbing a win-now piece…and I don’t really think SA has much that would fit with Houston and be worth a top 3 pick (even if it’s a weak class). I’m sure someone here can get creative and come up with something decent but just feels unlikely IMO.
I’m far less interested in 4 + 8 to move to 1. I’m a huge Sheppard fan but there’s a decent chance he’s available at 4, and if not, Castle + Dillingham is a better haul than Sheppard alone.
Oh I’m a dumbass, misread the Sheppard pieceMy bad - here’s the actual quote:
Should Houston decide to trade back or go another direction, San Antonio is also quite intrigued with Sheppard and will be in position to pounce one pick later.
I doubt Houston wants to help the Spurs get Sheppard if that is their target lol
