Spurs are shopping forward DeJuan Blair, league sources tell Y! Spurs have Euro picks they could bring over next season, need roster space.

After falling out of the rotation this season in San Antonio, DeJuan Blair is open to a move, sources tell Y!
No surprising but very interesting that it's becoming public knowledge. Wonder if something is heating up.
It makes a lot of sense to trade him at some point tonight.
Today could get interesting quickly.
Going into next year, if the Spurs aren't planning on starting Blair, he doesn't fit on the team at all. And starting him seems unlikely.
Perhaps for a high 2d round pick? (If so, there may be some intriguing Euros as well as some upside statesides like Tony Wroten.)
Hopefully we get something good in return
Can you imagine the meltdown here if DB gets 20 rebounds in his 1st game against SA next season ?
Draft day is the best day of the summer. Its like the christmas of summer,it's so exciting!
DeJuan Blair @DeJuan45
Great morning have a great day
Interesting. I wonder if Cleveland would be open to trading the 24th pick and Varejao. Not sure how the cap numbers would work out but packaging Splitter, Blair, Neal and/or Bonner would make us better defensively. Not sure where he is on the injury though. With the 24th pick, Andrew Nicholson might be available.
Please make a move RC
Preferably involving a rocket
And I hope Neal is also on the trading block. I don't want to see him at back-up PG any more.
Wonder if he can get them into the late first? If they could flip him to land someone like Quincy Miller, Marquis Teague, or Tony Wroten, it would be a good gamble. We already know Bonner is ahead of him in the rotation anyways, so the only angle I could take against it is a moot point.
Dejuan's a nice guy, but not a fit with the spurs anymore.
Good point. Varejao could always stop LeBron.
I'd guess that Blair is worth a pick in the 30s. If they can get a first rounder for him, that'd be a major win.
That's a nice way to say the Spurs need to go in a different direction because Blair has proven to be too small to be anything close to an average defender.league sources tell Y! Spurs have Euro picks they could bring over next season, need roster space
Absolutely. Blair is on a very cheap contract, so this makes a lot of sense. If the Spurs are able to get nothing more than an early or mid-second, that would still be acceptable. A late first would be a freaking home run!
Now, if they can just figure out a way to move Bonner, we'd really be in the ball park!
Not surprised.
It is pretty discouraging although that Hill, Blair, and Anderson didn't work out here when they looked great in their rookie seasons.
Let's hope Leonard doesn't go down the same path but he's on a different level.
Blair and Neal for 20s pick, please.
Would love Wroten!
It really is. Draft day is, by far, my favorite Sports day of the year.
Happy Draft Day, everyone!
What's interesting is ESPN still talks like he was a really major draft steal whenever they discuss Sullinger. Maybe there is hope of getting into the end of the first. Maybe Miami where they could use a scorer inside and have the defenders to cover for him?
Hill worked out very well, IMO. He played well for the Spurs and then they were able to trade him for three assets, including a lottery pick.
If the Spurs can trade Blair for a first round pick, that'd be another huge success. Shall be interesting to see what the Spurs get.
Trading Blair today is probably as close to selling high as possible. His stats look really good. His contract details are great. If the Spurs wait any longer, the only way for his stock to go is down, tbh.
If the spurs move blair and keep bonner...well it would not surprise me anymore.
