The San Antonio Spurs are unusually busy the day of the NBA Draft.
They are reportedly shopping LaMarcus Aldridge in hopes of landing a top 10 pick, but that's not the only blockbuster trade they have their eyes on. According to Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders, the Spurs have emerged as a "serious player" in trade talks for Paul George.
League sources peg Portland and San Antonio as the newest serious players in the Paul George race. Spurs said to have a real shot at him.

It remains to be seen what the Spurs are offering the Indiana Pacers for George, but there's a chance they are trying to acquire that top 10 pick to include in the deal.
The Lakers, Clippers, Wizards, Rockets and Cavs are also talking with Indiana about a possible George trade.
George averaged 23.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists this past season.
