    When has an Argentinian SG ever worked out as a late draft pick? Pass.
    last 20 years ? No one... so agree. Waste of time ��

    I would expand that to all international players

    parker (2001), Barbosa (2003), splitter (2007) are the only international 1st rd picks for the spurs that have worked out in the last 20yrs. Obviously Barbosa didn’t play for us.

    2nd rd international picks that worked out were Scola (2002), Dragic (2008), and De Colo (2009). with Dragic never playing for us.

    Assuming we don’t get the 1st or 2nd pick, would love to get the 3rd or 4th pick and get Toppin.
    Yeah I would love to get Obi but Onyeka is another PF I would not mind them picking up.

    I've seen him projected in the late 20s. I'd hate him at 11.
    I've seen him mocked in from 9 to any where between the top 20s.

    the two guys that i'm most interested in the top 5 are, Okongwu and Avdija.

    at the 11th pick, there are variety of SG, that i'd like to go after, but we load at sg, so cross SG off (unless one from the top7 falls). I think we need to look at sf/pf at this spot.

    i like us to go after Achiuwa, i know there's work needed on the offensive side especially the shooting end. But he brings so much potential to the defensive end. Plus he's only 20. has room to prove.

    On the main roster, we're missing the type of player Achiuwa is. he's a long athletic, and a high motor sf/pf, that can make a impact on the defensive end for us. He'll be able to defend 3/4s, so we wouldn't be needing our guards to go out and defend guys like PG, Kawhi, Lebron. Achiuwa his also long enough to guard pf, like Davis etc..

    for the 2nd round pick. i have 2 guys;

    Jordan Nwora, think or a bigger Forbes/white. He's got smooth release on 3, and deep range. Can attack and use the middle range game. He's also a 6'7/6'8 sf.

    the other guys is Bolmaro.

    Nwora plays defense and gets rebounds. Nothing like Forbes. A 6’8” white with a better 3pt shot and a little worse handled is a good comparison

    That would go top 5 you know... Seriously, Nwora is nowhere close to being a PG.

    Spurs have a 9.4% chance at a top 4 pick, not 2.8% like some have stated previously..

    They have a 2% chance at getting the 1st pick.
    If you're talking about Zeus, he's saying a 2-2.8 percent chance of getting EACH of the picks individually, not ANY of them. Like if you combine the chance of getting each of them, then you get 9.4, but each of the four slots range from 2.8 percent to 2 percent and average 2.35 percent. It just comes down to SA having a huge chance of getting the 11th pick, a small-but-real chance of getting the 12th pick, very-small chances of getting the first, second, third, fourth or 13th picks, almost no chance in of getting the 14th pick and literally no chance of getting the fifth through tenth picks.

    Yep, very good explanation Chinook. Man I know will probably get the 11th which still has some pretty good players available but man oh man if that ping pong ball could give us one of those top picks that would sure make all our lives very happy for a few days.

    Didn’t say he was a PG. he’s a true SF. Was replying to the other guys post that said he was a taller Forbes/white

    does the spurs really need to waste another draft pick on a long sf?

    how many wing players the spurs already have? why not go after a pg/sg to replace the wanker forbes/mills

    heck even a pf/c would be nice

    we don't have true sf, Samanic is pf, idk if you've been following him, but he's been disastrous on defense...there time's to improve, but we need defense.

    The only perimeter defenders on the roster are White, Murray and KJ. 6’4”, 6’5”, and 6’5”. Yes this team needs long athletic defenders that can guard players on the perimeter. Need some guys that can do that and are 6’7” to 6’10”

    Ringer's Board.

    Some out of the box projections there.
    Spurs should get their hands on a very good prospect with all the uncertainty and lack of info.

    Surprised that they have a guard heavy projection at the top.

    But Avdija, Bey and Mcdaniels all within Spurs reach here.

    Vassell looks like an exciting prospect.

    A good balance between offense and defense.

    Okoro's shooting is worrisome, Avdija's even more so.

    Agreed. And even though Okoro’s body looks ready to play NBA defense, his defensive rating and defensive win shares in college are not good at all.

    If the guy can’t shoot he better be one of the best rebounder and shot blocker in this draft for our first pick. I am OK with aiming for the fences on our second pick.

    Agreed, after okongwu, Isaiah Stewart and Vernon Carey look like the best bigs un this draft imo, would you Take one of them with the 11th pick ?

    Josh green looks good also

    At the wing i have vassell, okoro and green as the best choices in our range.
