Well, that would free up even more significant cap space to trade for or sign in FA that person that maybe fits better long term (defense, passing, 3PT shooting)
And that would be roster balance. Trading our only forward who has had a 20 ppg season isn’t.

During an interview with NBA on ESPN, Givony stated there are rumblings San Antonio is possibly exploring trading up to the No. 1 spot in exchange for their two first-round picks.
"You hear teams like San Antonio possibly exploring the idea of packaging the fourth and eighth pick. Maybe to move up to No. 1," he said.
Givony bomb. Does FO make the move now if they get Zacch with a Garland trade. I feel securing a starting wing comes first before a guard.
Did Givony ever actually break a relevant story?
If there's any truth to this, PATFO thinks Sarr has all-star potential. No way they'd trade both picks for Risacher.
I don't know. But Sarr fit is going to be clunky for a while until it isn't. If his earlier report about an expected Garland trade is true then I think it would be a snug fit like Zacch with that first selection.
Givoney is tight with Euro scouts, and has a pretty good eye for talent. Haven’t really seen his rumors come to fruition, though. He reminds me of Sean Deveney, who tanked his career when he tried to be Woj, switching from analysis to conjecture.
Both picks for Risacher would be a bad move. I don't believe the Spurs are that bad to consider doing that.
KOC also collaborating the report to move up.
For a not young anymore French basketball fan, the Risacher name brings a lot of good memories. Zaccharie's dad is Stéphane Risacher who was one of the best french player in the 90s and early 00s.
There was the 1997 preseason tournament against Jordan's Bulls, the unexpected olympic silver medal in 2000, french leagues games with team like Limoges, Pau-Orthez, Villeurbanne, PSG...
It would be kinda cool for me to have on Spurs the son of a player I've enjoyed watching when I was a teenager.
Detroit might do that actually...
Too bad he won't be around at 4. Wonder if the Spurs will trade up for him?
PSG vs MJ and the Bulls in the McDonald's tournament is one of my best childhood memory in bb
That's the rumour of the day, initiated by Givony and confirmed by Kevin O'Connor
Why not if he's their guy tbh. Adding only one rookie (salary + to develop) would make sense if they do other moves via trades
Trading up for Tha Rizz would be the worst asset management imaginable. ESPN makes up. That's what they do. KOC is full on clown.
I'll give you that espn makes things up and I'll give you that trading 4 + 8 for 1 isn't something I'd be in favor of. I'm not gonna say it's the worst asset management imaginable though. Risacher is the top guy in this draft and he's the best fit here, so it can make sense if they're doing something else via trade to round out a starting lineup.
for some here you just delivered one more reason, why Risacher should not be drafted……
did his dad make it to the NBA? NO! HE DID NOT!
what more proof do you need that the son will fail.
Instead of NBA his dad preferred to become an actor and try to kill Tom Cruise in a tunnel. (or was it the other way around. However.)
This site has been so upside down lately I have to read things a few times to decide whether it's sarcastic or not lol...
In a draft that appears this relatively poor at and near the top and with an organization as rigid as the Spurs, I don't care so much about going from "two bites at the apple" to one as I do making sure they get one positive impact player and despite all of his limitations, he has a much cleaner path to being that than Castle, Salaun, etc.
Snyder (has personnel say) is supposedly a fan of Clingan. Johnson, 4, 8, Hornets 1st, Hawks '26 1st for Murray and 1.

Risacher is not the top guy in this draft. He's just generous recipient of cir stances that put him that high. He really should be mocked around eight to ten. Burning two picks for him would be ludicrous.
I know you believe that and he is a generous recipient of cir stances, but the cir stances that benefit him are that he's the top guy in the worst draft in a generation. He'd be barely top 15 next year.
Sarr is the top guy
Could be, but it's not trending that way now... we'll get that answered in a few weeks though .
Or things are leaked on purpose and they report it. To me KOC is half clown, so to speak. And he's in a short attention span business, so it's fairly typical. I think he's gotten slightly better.
If RC believes in him that much to trade up for him, then I gotta go with him.
History is on his side and his talent evaluation
