An unusual season for the San Antonio Spurs clouded their future in a rare instance. It started and ended with Kawhi Leonard, at least for a few months, but now that the NBA Draft and free agency will arrive in a matter of weeks, it puts the status of players with expiring contracts in question.
The Spurs have seven players that can hit the open market which, on the surface, should mean salary cap flexibility. However, this can disappear with the snap of a finger.
The focus will be on Danny Green, Rudy Gay and Joffrey Lauvergne, all of whom have player options for the 2018-19 season for approximately $20.
