The NBA is an arm’s race. It’s about getting as much talent as possible above all else.
There are several avenues toward that goal. Still, the most reliable one may be to build through the NBA Draft. That’s where teams can control their own destiny to some extent.
The San Antonio Spurs are officially destined for great things. They just landed the first overall pick in the upcoming draft. That’s a blessing in any given season.
It’s an especially large one this year. The Spurs will be selecting Victor Wembanyama with the first overall pick.
Now, they’ll need to decide what comes next for them.
Could it be trading Keldon Johnson to the New York Knicks?
