The Spurs are rebuilding, no doubt about it. During this transition from their dynasty years until now, defining a leader has been relatively easy. From Gervin to David Robinson to Tim Duncan, a hierarchy was pretty cut-and-dry.
After Duncan retired, handing the team to Kawhi Leonard seemed natural. When Leonard left, DeMar DeRozan became the de facto floor leader, a role for which he never seemed fully comfortable.
Dejounte Murray seemed to poised to take the baton as the youth movement was finally given the full go-ahead, but he was carted off.
By all appearances, Keldon Johnson has taken a lot of the spotlight this year.
