In many ways the draft process has been less interesting for Spurs fans than last offseason. Yes, there is the excitement of getting the first overall pick and a potentially franchise changing player in Victor Wembanyama. Yet, it’s easy to feel left out from scouting conversations and prospect debates when it’s a near certainty who your team is selecting.
Well, if NBA Big Board’s Rafael Barlowe’s reports of the Spurs looking to acquire another pick in the lottery is true, things could get interesting quickly. In a draft that has a lot of analysts excited, it makes sense to grab another high end prospect to pair with Wemby as the next phase of Spurs basketball officially begins, especially as they look to improve at the lead guard spot moving forward.
