The San Antonio Spurs gave their fans something to react to on deadline day for the first time in a long time by making two moves in the final three hours before the trade moratorium. One was expected, the other was more of a shock.
Beginning with the first one:
Thad Young, Drew Eubanks & Detroit’s 2022 second round pick to the Raptors for Goran Dragic & Toronto’s 2022 first round pick (protected 1-14).
Ever since Thad Young was traded to the Spurs in the sign-and-trade that involved DeMar DeRozan to the Bulls, it had been expected that San Antonio would move on from the 33-year old veteran.
