Ray McCallum has big shoes to fill

The Spurs got an intriguing prospect in McCallum for cheap but expecting him to be able to replace Cory Joseph right off the bat might not be realistic.

The San Antonio Spurs made a trade to shore up their point guard depth after the departure of Cory Joseph in free agency. Their target was Ray McCallum, a former second round pick who couldn't find a permanent role with the Sacramento Kings.

On the surface, it was the perfect move for a team trying to win now. McCallum plays hard, has some experience and is still young enough to improve.
