Since the San Antonio Spurs generally operate from within their own means, it’s not often that general manager R.C. Buford has more than one late first-round draft pick at his disposal. With the 19th, 29th and 49th picks on deck, Buford may want to look into trade options to secure a more highly touted prospect in the lottery.
With an abundance of guards on the roster, Buford should consider packaging someone like Bryn Forbes, Marco Belinelli or Patty Mills with a draft pick or two to secure a top-tier prospect.
