Standing at 6-foot-8 with the height and strength to play both forward positions, San Antonio Spurs forward DeMarre Carroll allows head coach Gregg Popovich quite a bit of versatility on the wing. Known for his defensive grittiness and intensity on both ends of the floor, Carroll is sure to be a great fit in the Alamo City for his physicality and attention to detail.
Still, Pop will need to do some tinkering with a clogged backcourt and a questionable frontcourt rotation. Carroll slots alongside Rudy Gay as one of the team’s two true small forwards with DeMar DeRozan, Lonnie Walker IV and Marco Belinelli all possessing the size to slide down into that slot as needed.
