The San Antonio Spurs selected Kyle Anderson with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2014 draft, and his rise hasn't exactly been meteoric. As longtime San Antonio Express-News writer Buck Harvey put it in June, "Exactly one year later, his future is still a mystery."
That mystery is really no fault of Anderson's. It had more to do with a previously crowded wing rotation in which the UCLA product found few opportunities. The versatile 6'9" forward only appeared in 33 contests with the Spurs last season, alternating between the NBA Development League and a roster that had plenty of options at its forward positions.
