2024 Spurs Draft Recap | SSPN Offseason

[@Cbiz210]

I am STOKED about Nuñez! I had him going in the first round... I NEVER dreamed we would have a chance to pick him up! Best passer in the class, HANDS DOWN!

[@joed7185]

Cant wait for Juan to play this season. He will be an instant fan favorite here in SA!

[@blablablaa14]

@@joed7185 He will be in Europe for another year. The Spurs saving cap space

I’m interested in how you think he would fit in the lineup I wonder does he play Pg and Castle Sg? What would be best?

[@blablablaa14]

@@KEVEONISEYE He will probably stay abroad for a couple of years first. Then come over when he's more ready, then he will be the backup PG until he proves himself

[@John.Egeolu]

juan nuñez might play next year because because he hasn’t finalized the deal with Barcelona yet

He’s a good pick, let’s see that pick and roll with Wemby

​@@MaximusR93Who is Nunez going guard, Fox, MAXEY, Morant, Curry, Luka, Kyrie, BRUNSON, LILLARD, Beal, Dillingham, Shai HE IS GOING TO GET TORCHED BECAUSE HE'S NOT AN ATHLETE. Spurs are ruining Wemby. Good luck making the playoffs in 2027.

[@AppreciateTheGame2200]

@@SaySpawn you're dense... why would they put him on them? lol he'd be coming off the bench if any this year... you sound like you dont know hoop

[@hoesnyhamid7356]

6m cap was not the reason to trade the 8th pick the main reason is the trade. unprotected pick is not easy toget and also got top-1 swap are really valuable, surely a lot more valuable than dilly

[@MaximusR93]

Yeah I hope they don’t trade those picks. Maybe trade them a year ahead if they don’t look promising

[@blablablaa14]

Fully unprotected picks are never given, yet the Spurs keep getting them, by 2030 we will have all the leagues picks

[@Combinationlock]

Nunez at pick 35 has more potential

[@Aaron-bb5gi]

The 8th pick is a lottery pick

[@Abdul95Rachman]

(Dumb) People think it's a joke that the Spurs are scouting a 6th grader. *Mohamed Dabone a.k.a. better prospect than Wembanyama

[@RJLKMRD]

I'm sorry but the San Antonio Spurs just made the worst trade in NBA history and there was no reason for them to do so; a complete embarrassment

[@Cbiz210]

I have read the opposite... My sources say Juan Nuñez will play for The San Antonio SPURS in the upcoming season whereas Ingram will play in Cedar Park (Austin).

[@Head_log_8311]

Happy we ended up with Juan in the second round. I feel like that’s the sneaky great pick ! GSG

[@Cbiz210]

Lot has been made about Castle having championship pedigree... Well the same can be said about Juan Nuñez!

[@rodrigopolastre]

Exatamente, o DNA vencedor está voltando. Facilmente imagino nunez e castle se tornando titulares em alguns jogos

[@Combinationlock]

Nunez has been playing pro ball for the last 2 years and is playing in the Olympics. He is ready start straight away with the Spurs

[@ZaraAmy-w5u]

your podcast is really good. I love it!

[@cjonesway]

Love the channel guys! #GoSpursGo

[@blablablaa14]

I would expect zero off season signing. We already have a big roster and I am pretty sure we are bringing everyone back other than Devonte. Also other than PG13 (who is not coming to the Spurs and is 34 so we don't want him anyhow), there are no major free agents. Free agency in general is dead because players can request out whenever, so contracts don't matter. The Spurs are building from within and we like our guys. Get excited about seeing Mamu, Champagnie, Bassey, Keldon and Barlow on our team because they are getting minutes

[@MaximusR93]

Mamu especially, that dude should get all of Collins minutes, he actually knows how to play

[@blablablaa14]

@@MaximusR93 I still sadly think we see Collins play major minutes. The Spurs are not in win at all cost mode yet. The draft class next year will be stacked, we want to be good, but we also want probably a late top 10 first round pick. So Collins is still gonna play his role as the main tanker

[@blablablaa14]

Nunez might be a player that is a huge steal that becomes like Tony Parker. He's by far better than Rob Dillingham. A decade ago he would go top 5

[@troyordaz5350]

hes not better than rob but he can def be a steal

[@blablablaa14]

@@troyordaz5350 He is the starting PG at 18 for the Spanish national team. The same national team that routinely gave the hardest time to the best USA teams we had in the 00-10s. I get that you like that short quick dude. But that dude aint playing playoff basketball unless he becomes the best defender at 6'0 tall. Rob would be lost playing for a european team. He's AAU type talent, a baller, not a pro basketball player

[@blablablaa14]

@@AppreciateTheGame2200 Ballers get picked all the time to play in the NBA with NBA teams thinking they can make them a real NBA player. But all of them fail. The dude is Bones Hyland 2.0 and you making him out to be Kyrie 2.0. Stop it with this silliness. No one should want to have the smallest player in the NBA, especially not a team with aspirations like the Spurs

They stick around for another year. They just might not get as many minutes

[@pgiivanlennardesguerra8300]

the front office thinks that blake and malaki is better than any players selected at 8th or in same level thats why they traded the pick

[@blablablaa14]

@@pgiivanlennardesguerra8300 They still could be. If Wesley can use his speed to pass people, he will be insanely good. If Malakai can be decent in defense and shoot from three more consistently he will be an amazing 6th man for the team.

Please give Nunez a chance 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@cortezfernandez7475]

#8 trade SUCKS! Nunez is a poor shooting, scoring liability. I'd still advocate getting Lonzo Ball and Ayo Dosunmu for Keldon Johnson, Devonte Graham and Tre Jones and 2 2nd rd picks Signing Isiah Hartinstien, Bol Bol and Nic Batum in free agency. I know Castle didn't want to go to a team with an established PG. However, Ball has been injured and likely won't be available until late into the season and he's injury prone. Ayo is a great PG to come off the bench or start as Castle learns and improves his shot. Now they'd have 6'6 Ball(injured), 6'5 Ayo Dosunmu, 6'6 Castle along with 6'5 Vassel playing guard. That's a deep, tall, skilled backcourt with a great mix of styles, excellent passing, good shooting and defensively steller

[@jmode_explicit]

Yea ur jumping the gun too quick

[@cortezfernandez7475]

@Hobbiie I don't see it as overpaying. Giving up players no longer needed with salaries that aren't great for the NEED of young veteran PGs is actually brilliant and looking outside the box. Ayo is rising. Ball is the PROTOTYPE of the type of guard the Spurs need and would be excellent mentor to Castle. Will Ball be healthy? Yes, it's a concern but the Spurs have good medical staff to evaluate him.

[@douglittleii3332]

i wish the spurs would have gotten edey at 8...castle ...wemby...and edey....nobody is scoring!!!

[@joshpaniagua7645]

That's fine that we made a trade but really we couldn't get another team to offer more than Minnesota did thats pathetic popovich will probably be dead by then

[@shaneweston2377]

It’s not always about the package, spurs obviously betting on Minnesota imploding due to their terrible financial situation and lack of draft capital. Just remember how much everyone hated the dejounte trade, well that’s looking pretty good right now

[@christianpicardo2683]

What pissed me off is that , 1. We traded the 8th pick for 2030-2031 ! Which we could atleast easily traded for 2025-2026 or 2027 , #2 we traded for a western conference team! MF! We just helped a young and upcoming team and makes them stronger , the GM/POp and team made a mistake period ! We could just get knecht or devin carter , and contribute easily

[@pgiivanlennardesguerra8300]

do you think that the spurs didnt ask other teams ? they traded to minnesota because its the best haul that they got, spurs are notorious on not helping team on the same conference. 2025 and 2026 are loaded draft class most of the teams are keeping their picks.

@@pgiivanlennardesguerra8300 best haul is 2030-2031? 🤣 you can package that 8th to get a decent free agent , irregardless that this class is week , but geez , a top 8 for 2030-2031 ?
