Why The San Antonio Spurs Do The Deal
The Spurs do the deal to acquire Trae Young. It really is that simple.
Sure, they could play the lottery odds. The Spurs are one of the worst teams in the NBA right now. Meanwhile, the upcoming draft is seen as one of the best in recent memory.
With that in mind, this deal would likely destroy the team’s odds of landing Victor Wembanyama or Scoot Henderson. At the same time, even the league’s very worst team has a slim chance of landing either.
Who would you rather start a rebuild around right now: Trae Young, or Amen Thompson?
