Bryn Forbes has only briefly spoken to San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich since signing with the team.


Pop’s advice to his undrafted rookie entering NBA summer league play: “He just told me to shoot it,” Forbes said Thursday.
There is no ambiguity as why NBA teams like Forbes or why the Spurs gave the former Michigan State and Lansing Sexton standout a guaranteed contract to choose them.
Forbes made 77 of 100 3-pointers at one of his pre-draft workouts for NBA teams — the most by any player this year, Forbes was told. And while his 6-foot-3 frame and questions about his ball-handling kept him from being selected on draft night, his deft shooting was worth more than an NBA summer league invite.


So some teams also offered money. The Spurs went a bit further, giving Forbes a one-year contract. If he makes their roster in training camp, he’ll earn the rookie minimum salary, around $543,000. If he doesn’t, he’ll still be under contract with the Spurs, paid enough to agree to stay with the organization for one year — even if it’s spent in the D-League — instead of going overseas and perhaps making six-figures there.
Forbes and the Spurs summer league squad begin play in Utah on Monday evening. After three games in Salt Lake City, they’ll move to the Las Vegas Summer League, which runs July 8 through 18.


Forbes is an intriguing pro prospect. He has coveted skill. He made better than 48 percent of his 3-pointers as a senior at MSU, second-best in college basketball, tops among major conference players by a ways. Not every NBA roster has shooter like him. Boston, Memphis and Minnesota are among the compe ive teams that lost games last year because they lacked players who can shoot from distance.
The Spurs ranked second in the NBA last season in 3-point percentage, seemingly making them an odd choice for Forbes. But in the Popovich era, San Antonio has always been a proactive franchise. And as Forbes said, you can never have too much shooting. Given the Spurs’ track record of finding, signing and developing unheralded players, Forbes saw a fit.
“It was Philly and the Spurs I was trying to decide between,” Forbes said of two franchises on opposite ends of the spectrum these days. “I had been talking to the Spurs for a while and I really like how they do things. Finding your fit is a big thing, too — the way they do things, how they play.”


To stick in the NBA, or to eventually find his way in, he’ll have to prove he can handle the basketball well enough to survive at 6-3 — handling the ball wasn’t something he did much of at MSU.
“I’m going to play more combo (guard),” Forbes said. “That’s something else I’ve got to work on a little bit, playing the point guard position.”

Homeless Man's Danny Green.

You won't last at that height unless you can handle the ball.

I was thinking taller Patty Mills.

Jack McClinton redux?

McClinton had Vinnie Johnson potential; that's not this guy.

Gary Neal is actually the perfect comparison
