Would this trade make sense for the San Antonio Spurs?
Thaddeus Young was used as an asset to acquire DeMar DeRozan by the Chicago Bulls to complete an elite offseason. Now, Young could be moved again if the San Antonio Spurs do not want to hang onto him heading into the season.
It seems likely that he is traded at the NBA trade deadline. With the current situation for both sides, it is clear that Thaddeus Young would benefit a win-now team such as the Clippers.
When looking at the return for San Antonio, Kennard is a player who could contribute long-term. He played a role in Los Angeles and showed that he can consistently get it done from three-point range.
He would have an even bigger role with the Spurs, along with Murray and Johnson. This is a move that looks toward the future for San Antonio and points them in the right direction.
