Davis Bertans 2016-17 season review: Draft and splash

Related Topics: Kawhi Leonard

The 2011 draft not only brought Kawhi Leonard to San Antonio, it also netted one of the team’s more promising young pieces in the lengthy, smooth-shooting Davis Bertans.

That Bertans made it over at all is a product of his hard work and patience, with multiple serious knee injuries set him back in his early 20s. Yet upon arriving, five years after being drafted, it hardly looked like he’d been robbed of any bounce or athleticism.

Bertans does a number of other things pretty well, but one thing very well: shoot the ball.
