Welcome to the daily Thread. During the month of June, we are talking NBA Draft. As we lead up to the 2018 NBA Draft on June 21st, we will be revisiting the Spurs draft choices. Today we remember 2001.
As mentioned yesterday, the 2000 NBA draft was uneventful for the San Antonio Spurs. And although they drafted Manu Ginobili the previous year, he had yet to join the squad. An immediate impact was made in the Alamo City as PATFO drafted an unknown French point guard named Tony Parker with the 28th pick in 2001.
