The end of the season is starting to seem more like a tryout for next year’s squad than an attempt to finish the year with some wins. But if the Spurs are going to play like this over the last four games, they might just finish their audition on a high note anyways.
San Antonio has opted to do a rotating rest schedule to end the year. Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell and Zach Collins all take turns being “the guy” while the other members of the young core sit. This gives the rest of the roster a chance to show they belong in the NBA.
