I DECLARE ALPEREN SENGUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNN
Either Poeltl is gone, or I hope Sengun’s worked on his quickness by a lot (if he’s the pick)

This getting out means he’s going to the kings or some
this years Patrick Williams
I wouldn’t mind having Sengun. I think he needs to remain at C because of his great footwork and bbal IQ and facilitate from the post, but needs to be paired with a stretch big, Dieng, Samanic, Lauri (?). I don’t really want him slimming down but rather developing his strength in the post. His game is a natural 5, not a 4. But it wouldn’t hurt to develop a consistent 3 pt shot.

Is this guy not Frank Kaminsky?
In that they both play basketball?
Pop is apparently at the workout per Sengun’s IG story. Quick turnaround from the USAB game yesterday
are they assuming the guy with the white hair is Pop? If so the scouting for Sengun must be pretty serious
I dont believe Pop flew out from his USA duties for every single prospect reported to work out for the Spurs so far. Sengun is a real candidate, IMO
That being said, on the topic of Spurs “hiding who they’re interested in” per The Truth #6 , you cant stop guys like Sengun who blow the Spurs’ cover by posting on IG who theyre working out for. Unless they only tell the prospects theyre interested in to NOT post about it. Which in that case… Sengun is a smokescreen.
Yes just an assumption based on the photo. The guy in the background looks like Pop to me but who knows. If it’s Pop, I think that’s pretty significant
Unless it’s a double trick. Hiding him in plain sight! Joking. I have no way to predict this stuff with the gamesmanship. Now, if we see a workout video of Sengun bricking 3s or showing awful form, then we could wonder if something is up just like Vassel last year.
Or not at all.
ohpleasegod
Deanondraft says that both he and Mobley could be better than Jokic. I’ve been team Sengün since Dejounte’s poll started.
That’s gotta be pop in the pic right?
At this point in the draft, I don't know if you need to really hide your picks. For a Batum dropping late, yes, but Sengun has been tabbed as a potential Spurs interest for a while. It's more just a matter of whether the several picks before them go elsewhere or not. Now, I don't expect the FO to talk up Sengun, or talk him down. Just expect them to be quiet about where they go: like many here, I'm sure they have a tier of players of whom a few will be available at that point.

Read thru. He thinks Kai Jones is badly overrated. I agree. Kai Jones is a 2nd round pick, to me.
What's interesting is that he sees good upside for Greg Brown.
Poeltl is not gone because they might select an 18 year old, non sure thing prospect. Sengun would face an uphill battle just to crack the rotation next season, let alone unseat a starter.
Dieng would be the likely casualty (Hollinger already indicated as much), which would place a premium on acquiring a floor spacing 4.5 to give them a stretch 5 option.
He needs to be paired with a four who provides floor spacing and rim protection (obviously not easy to find), but they'd have time. It's not like he'd be expected to play a prominent role next season.
Sengun probably is the four.
Maybe I am old and decrepit, but, I don't see anything on Sengun's IG account about the Spurs.
Instagram story, have to click on his profile picture that is shaped like those clocks the doctors make you draw at your appointments.
It's on his IG story thing. It's not in the photos. Yes, I looked.
If we get Sengun, I see Eubanks as the more likely casualty. I think they would be silly to not pursue Dieng. But hey, silliness happens.
