Spurs should send Victor to the G League to get over himself and sign this guy
Spurs Free Agent Target (this past offseason) SG Kevin Tran and the Saigon Heat of the Vietnamese Basketball Association have mutual interest.
As someone of Vietnamese ancestry, Tran would not take up a "foreign player" roster spot, allowing the Saigon Heat maximum flexibility to sign more impactful players with those roster spots. VBA teams are only allowed up to 3 foreign players. Typically, the foreign players are the best players in the league.
We've seen the international game soar to new heights right before our very eyes. Earlier this week, Team USA fell to Lithuania at the FIBA World Games.
...
My resources tell me that Tran met with the Saigon Heat brass within the last month. Any such contract offer would -- of course -- include an NBA opt-out clause. The Spurs have remained relatively conservative this offseason and have not gone after any free agents since landing prized lottery pick Victor Wembayana.
To me, this reminds more and more of the Patty Mills (coincidentally his Spurs player comparison) situation in 2012. Mills played in the CBA in 2012 before signing with the Spurs in March. Mills ended up playing 10 seasons for the Spurs and has a high chance of seeing his number in the rafters one day.
The Georgia Tech product plays with a high motor and can finish with either hand. He is an absolute marksman from 3-point range. Teams cannot help off of him.
...
Potential Depth Chart... (assumes Devonte Graham will be moved before the deadline).
PG: Jones - Tran - Wisely
SG: Vassell - Branham - McDermott
SF: Sochan - Johnson - Bullock
PF: Wembayana - Mamu - Champagnie
C: Collins - Bassey - Barlow

No one gives a about that Chinese dude!
This mofo a game changer
At the middle school level maybe or the YMCA.
Actually if he truly wanted to play ball and dominate he should just pick up the most trendiest of mental illnesses and call himself a woman. He'd kill it in the WNBA.
Look Kevin, we know you'd love to play for the spurs, but this is getting embarassing.
This is getting sad. Patty Mills played in China only because of the lockout, and had previous NBA experience.
Kevin Trannie?
Is that that kid in Tiktok who likes to get people’s hats??
Impacts the game as in his team loses any lead during his time on court...finishes himself with either hand...fify
you keep reacting seriously to incredibly obvious troll bait, whether its op or other clear trolls like playblair
Trolls can be sad, too.
of course they're sad
but giving them serious responses is laughable imo
Him meeting with Spurs brass back in 2022 and having ties to SA were legit info from sources though...
What's the "h" for btw, Kevin?
Kevin "hollymolly " Tran?
Crazy we haven't signed this dude yet.
What a steal if true. Fingers crossed!
I mean i guess they could use another member to the cheer squad at halftime that is generally an mildly unathletic bunch
He has a skill set that reminds me of a cross between an early Harden/Curry on defense.
at this point OP must be in the guy since this is like the 5th thread he made about him
Austin Spurs try outs are coming up... hopefully Kevin's agents have things lined up.
