Would love to see Langford get Walker’s minutes.
I think Lonnie’s only been playing these last two because we were short handed waiting on these two players from Boston. Other than the most recent game, he’s looked awful for a month, or maybe longer. You’ll be able to get a read on his future and the Spurs direction by his playing time going forward, but I’d say it doesn’t look good for him.
Would love to see Langford get Walker’s minutes.
ALL OF THEM.
I’ve never seen so much hype for a guy who probably won’t play a single minute for the Spurs.
Not really hype in my opinion, fans just want to if a highly touted prospect has something to contribute. I think he’ll play a few minutes in a spurs jersey.
From what I see he is guaranteed next year. Why would you think he doesn't get a chance? This isn’t Sato, Juancho or even Hutchison for that matter. This a young player involved in a semi big trade (for the Spurs at least) who has show an intriguing skill set at the NBA level.
A 43" vertical and a 7' wingspan conjures up a ton of dreaming! It gives us Spurs fans some hope that not everybody is just a role player!
Helps me forget Lonnie![]()
I'm legit surprised that he didn't get sent G-Leauge right away.
This is his 3rd season and while his FG% and 3P% have improved, the volume is still too low to make anything of it.
His G-League(7gms) stats aren't worth a look either.
But he's only 22 so time is still on his side. I'm just confused about his place on our big league roster.
dont see any,tbh
Looks thrilled to be here. Dude’s got Kawhi’s personality, minus the drive to be a great player.
Does he come with an uncle too?
We're those 2 flashes of bat Manu around 2min mark
He's young and just got traded give him a break lol.
Also seeing a lot of Lonnie hate, doesn't make much sense to me. He is doing much better than many of the players drafted around him... Lonnie has also garnered more respect around the league than ya'll give credit. I always hear the other teams broadcasters heaping praise on him and his potential.
Langford is going to have his work cut out for him to even crack the rotation.
Vassell, Keldon, Walker, Langford, Richardson, Primo and potentially 1-3 incoming draft picks that will be battling for minutes at the 2/3.
If we draft or sign a starting quality 4 this summer there will be even less room for 3-4 guys above.
Lonnie is a fugazi, a fake. He’s inconsistent eye candy, but doesn’t contribute to winning on a consistent basis. In almost four full seasons, he has ac ulated a whopping 1.3 WS. The two guys above and below him in the draft are both over 8 WS, and one of them, DiVicenzo, just got traded by Milwaukee. The best WS comp is Chandler Hutchison, a head case who had his option declined, was traded twice, and waived in his first 3 years. He ac ulated 1.1 WS.
Lonnie’s phone is not going to ring this summer, unless the Knicks, who like to go through our garbage, offer him a 2Way to keep Sammich company in Westchester.
I would be really suprised if he is not on the team next year, offesnievly he has work to do, but he has nice potential on the defensive side, he can guard 1-3 and some 4s. I see him an Richardson coming of the bench.
I expect to trade him around the draft.
I think Richardson will go then, because he has a résumé. What could we get for Romeo if we don’t polish him up a bit?
I agree. I don’t think he has that much value right now. I like moving Richardson though.
Casual fans be like ^^
He actually interviews better than Kawhi did his first 5 years in the league.
If we don't 'polish' him up a bit we probably keep him and work on that next season but I have a hunch that we'll start working on him now to make him as valuable as possible around the draft. If it's this summer I see him as more of a sweetener on a bigger deal if we can improve his value just a bit.
