Which prospects make the most sense for the Spurs to end up with at June's NBA Draft?
In the coming weeks, let's attempt to play the role of NBA Draft Matchmaker, pairing up teams with players, while obviously taking into account where players are projected to be selected next month.First up is, of course, the San Antonio Spurs. How could it not be? We're all looking at what the Spurs will do to build around Victor Wembanyama, and that starts with the June draft where the Spurs will pick four times, via No. 4, No. 4, No. 35, and No. 48 overall.
Of course you want a high-IQ ball-handler and playmaker next to your generational center. Even if Topić is a bit on the raw side, and will need a few years to get his outside shot sorted, you roll the dice and hope his court vision, patience, and a wider NBA court will keep his head above water until he rounds out his game.
The biggest question about Topić isn't even whether he fits with Wembanyama or not, but rather "is he available?" when the Spurs make their selection. If the Wizards take him at No. 2, no one would bat an eye.
