Devin.....NO!

Does Pop send Luka and Tre?
Does he fight his temptation to send Devin???

Devin is too valuable for senior team. He is shooting 53% from 3 and playing good defense !
Devin plays with the big boys. Send Samanac and probably Jones.
Vassell should demand a trade if Pop sends him to the G League.
With White currently and consistently getting injured, the Spurs are going to need Vassell all year long.
Devin and Jones should stay. They are proving to be valuable additions to the team. Samanic needs to go to Austin & learn to play some defense.
i tend to think he keep devin here and sends luka and tre. especially with derrik white out for an indefinite amount of time.
I think Luka, Tre, Q, and Keita all go into the bubble to play with the baby Spurs. The bubble season is supposed to be shortened. What that means, no one knows. A normal season is about 40 games. If they play 25-30, with no travel, it could be over in two months. They’d all come back up to the big club.
Vassell is clearly NBA ready and needs to stay with the big boy team in case of injuries (which we are already experiencing)
Jones and Samanic should go though. Samanic is just rotting on the bench. Weatherspooon as well when he is healthy
Luka should go and have the team run everything through him.
I think they’ll even send Q now, so he can do initial quarantine with the team, and rehab down there.
No. He’s not even ready to do that in the gleague. He should take the normal role he would be expected to eventually play in SA. Run the team thru Tre and Q.
They need to send a sports psychiatrist with Luka
As long as Patty's healthy, Jones won't get much time. He could use reps down low.
Devon already putting in work! With White out going back and forth would’ve made some sense. Samanic needs another year to work in his new muscular body.
for sure but I think a lot of it had to do with him putting on a lot of muscle and not getting a lot of time on the court. If by next year he looks out of sorts then we know the draft pick could’ve been a mistake.
If White weren't out for, likely, another month to month and a half, then Vassell might be heading to Orlando so he could play big minutes instead of playing sparing or getting DNPs. Instead, I expect him to stay with the team and continue getting minutes.
Bates-Diop, Jones, Witherspoon, and Luka are all obviously going though.
Devin is NBA ready. Heck he should be getting more minutes with his excellent defensive feel, length in rebounding and shooting ability. Definitely Luka, Tre, and Diop. Q I like what I saw in the bubble, but may compete with Vassell in minutes, so send him also. If Luka can get stronger and confidence to finish strong, the kid could be a unicorn. Right now I’d be happy if he’s a burro.

Seems like Devon is carving out minutes on the big club, so he should stay. Luka urgently needs to go back, and Tre and Q makes sense too.
Devin will stay with the spurs. Even when White comes back he probably won't play heavy minutes all year, so Devin is going to get some minutes in probably every game this year.
They’re talking a shortened season, so I don’t think players will go back and forth this year. Orlando will be a gleague bubble, just like the NBA was last summer and fall. You can’t have players going in and out. If there is a serious big club injury, you could pull someone out, but they couldn’t go back without a 10 day quarantine. A normal gleague season is like 40 games, so 25-30 could be done in two months. Then, they come back to the big club.
