One of the first moves of the 2019 free agency period for the San Antonio Spurs was to secure a deal with two-way forward DeMarre Carroll from Brooklyn. After two seasons with the resurgent Brooklyn Nets, learning from head coach Kenny Atkinson – a disciple of former-Spur Mike Budenholzer– Carroll showed the world that he can be an impactful player.
Now that Carroll has landed in the Alamo City, it seems that head coach and franchise patriarch Gregg Popovich is hesitant to let the new addition run. This is a bashful move considering the Spurs give up 114.
