Josh Primo brings the preseason hype again with 23 points against the Thunder

A little over a year ago, there was a lot of confusion about the Spurs’ decision to take a relatively unknown player with the 12th overall pick, and he was “another guard” at that. His name was Josh Primo, the youngest player in the draft coming off a solid but unspectacular season at the University of Alabama. Some of the skepticism was alleviated when he showed some flashes in the preseason and early in the regular season, but soon Primo was just another rookie playing in Austin, and even when he did get some NBA time out of necessity, he looked like the youngest player in the league at times.
