The draft is just days away and there’s not much suspense about what the Spurs will do with the top pick. Victor Wembanyama will be wearing Silver and Black next year. San Antonio won’t move the pick or take anyone else. It’s a done deal.

Brian Wright addressed the media on Monday and acknowledged that going that route remains a possibility but the franchise is not willing to move Devin Vassell or Keldon Johnson to make it happen, according to the San Antonio Express-News’ Mike Finger:

“No,” he said, before I could finish.
