    They’d have to move up maybe as far as late lottery to ensure they get him if they want him.

    Na, I was reading somewhere that he was projected possible lottery when that article was written but his stock has since then plummeted. He is now projected late 1st or even 2nd round.

    If Rafael Barlowe of NBA Big Board says so... Thanks Ty Jäger and his 5K followers for reporting that solid info.

    Lots of articles or tweets from obscure pundits assumign stuff to get some attention. Reality is they know nothing, just guessing.

    Why'd dude say interest in Rupert suggests he pushes Jones? Rupert is in no way a point guard.

    Hmmm… wonder why he’s plummeting. If the Spurs like him and he’s available at 33, then great.

    Nah, he doesn't even know Rupert's position. And I didn't see Rupert on many major mocks as he claims.

    Barlows was at the combineI think and does have some agent contacts, so it's possible he heard some things
    Agents have been known to use lightly or non-connected media to spread false rumors.

    I'd be once again impressed if the Spurs float interest in certain players then go somewhere else. I can see the interest in Rupert as a defensive project in the 20-30 range.
    This is the source of my recurring nightmare that we pick Amen @ #1.

    We hardly ever reveal our intentions….. nothing to see here.

    I've seen a mock where we trade Keldon to grab #6 and get Ausar.
    Take it with a grain of salt but these are sometimes interesting to see how much people value players and picks.

    i'm pretty sure that was on bleacher report; it also has the spurs taking on nurkic and keon johnson.

    What you say is true, but patiently waiting in the Zen Garden for that which is unknowable in advance is not fun. Tranquil, perhaps, wise, even, but not fun.
    To speculate about the unknowable, to pretend to have special knowledge, to argue about it tirelessly, that is fun.

    There's a whole bunch of people at the combine and no one knows what the spurs intend to do, starting by agents. How would they? This is not a tupperware reunion where eveyone knows and shares NBA GMs intentions... Nobody knows what the spurs want to do, except the spurs, they don't scream it around... And in the case spurs would have given their word to an agent, then ofc he wouldn't precisley talk. this is a business, not kindergarten.

    Tell me Woj, windhorst or Givony and we'll talk but even themselves have no idea.

    Yet if it was Bilal the rumor was about, some people here would go gaga and easily believe it

    I would be thrilled if we could convert our two late 2nd rounders into a late 1st round pick, but I think it would be a mistake to trade our future first rounder from Charlotte to do that.

    I would take the 17th overall pick in the 2024 draft over the 22nd overall pick in the 2023 draft.

    I wouldn't....this draft looks much stronger.

    That’s not the correct comparison. The comparison is a ~70% chance at a pick somewhere between 15 and 30 at some point over the next three years versus the 22nd pick now.

    Certainly there is some time value of picks that needs to be taken into consideration. In the NFL, the rule of thumb is a round higher (a 4th rounder this year is worth a 3rd rounder next year). Of course the NBA is a lot different, but I'd have to imagine teams have a general idea of the time value of picks - of course there is the added wrinkle of uncertainty of where a pick may land in the future.

    Indy has picks #26 #29 #32, and of course their #7 which they will use.

    But one of those latter one's will be on the table.
