Damn so let me try to get this right we get their 22 pick and then in 2028 we can swap picks with them if they have a better draft pick then us?
Gotta say, I'm feeling extra optimistic about this draft. A few nights ago, I did a deep dive on Keegan Murray, Tari Eason, and Kendall Brown, and I came away thinking I'd be happy if the Spurs got any of them. If they somehow managed to get 2 of those 3-- whoa.
Thanks Mo an Talk y’all just made my Sunday.
I actually think that when we use our first draft pick these will probably be the players we seriously look at all three have pros and cons - Biggest would be age, shooting, and height
After our first pick I am hoping we could grab one or two of the following players;
Walker Kessler 7’1 Center
Nikola Jovic 6’10 SF
Jean Montero 6’3 PG
Dyson Daniels 6’6 SG
Jeremy Sochan 6’9 SF/PF
Wow just saw Clippers lost Powell to a foot fracture. Out an indefinite period of time according to reports.
Not inconceivable to think Pels, Spurs and Kings could trade places with Lakers, Clippers and Blazers by season's end.
Plus Josh, and a 22 yrs old, former lottery pick defensive prospect Langford. Thanks to D-White
Give me a shot at the lakers.
Triple double with blocks
I am a fan of Jovic, especially after watching him play in the U19 tournament. Dude has some game to be as tall as he is. I definitely wouldn’t mind our SPURS drafting him with one of those picks in the teens.
I was hoping Raptors kept Ewwbanks and help us with the cause
Jović is miles better than Šamanić since he‘s putting up these numbers in the adriatic league and not the 2nd slovenian league
Yeah I was thinking the same thing if we don’t do any trades I could see us possible drafting two international players as 4 rookies in camp is just way to much
Heck I wouldn’t might it so much if we got top 5, Kessler and Jovic. Our 2nd round picks though, and Spurs have multiples(?), that’s who we stash. I don’t know the rules of stashing players, for what picks, etc.
One thing I like about Kessler is that he blocks shots with either hand and keeps the ball in play. Very Timmy-like in that respect. Downside is a severe lack of offensive skills.
This was his performance on Saturday against Texas A&M. He dominated on both ends. A triple-double with blocks impressive. Don’t think he will be available late in the 1st though, if he even declares. He could return for another season.
Love this kid’s at ude. And his game. Spurs won’t select high enough to get him unfortunately, but he’s going to be a big time player at the next level imo.
#1 overall pick right here.
I think he will as he is pretty much a first round pick why risk injury which could end his career and millions of dollars. I agree as far as pick we would have to use the Raptors pick as I think that will be lower then the Boston’s pick.
Another path would be the following with the Raptors pick:
Jean Montero - PG
Nikola Jovic - SF/PF
Jeremy Sochan - SF/PF
Dyson Daniels - SG
If they do use Boston’s pick and Kesslers there you take him but if they want more mobile bigs then take:
Christian Koloko - C
Ismael Kamagate - C
I feel like he's destined for OKC, where he'll replace Pokushevski and never be heard from again as they play their "Never actually put a team together" game.
I’d like to see him in Orlando tbh. They deserve a franchise player with how awful they’ve been the past decade. Plus Jalen Suggs is his best friend as they played together in high school and both are Gonzaga guys. At the very least keep him in the East. Don’t want him in Houston, OKC, or New Orleans, or anywhere in the West other than SA for that matter.
Agree. These feel like Brian Wright players, athletic, US born. I’m overgeneralizing, but trying to remember the last Euro player we picked.
With 2WP contracts, late Euros are not much different than any other player at this point. Previously they held additional value from mid first and later as draft and stash candidates. But now, at least with second round picks, you can stash any player in the gleague on a 2WP. Also, Samanic was Wright's first draft, although the belief is that he was Buford's pick.
Their pick is lottery protected this year. Them dropping into the lottery would be bad. Boston, otoh….I was hoping Raptors kept Ewwbanks and help us with the cause
I'm stoked about having this mid round firsts, assuming we can at least get top 6 (of course, top 4 ideal).
I feel like we aren't that far off from a playoff contender... get an instant impact PF, sign Levine (assuming we don't draft Ivey), and then get a couple of guys with TOR and BOS picks that can develop the "Spurs way" and I'd like our prospects.
