San Antonio Spurs
Apparently, the Spurs are looking for a big man to ease Victor Wembanyama’s burden. P.J. Washington is probably not who they had in mind.
Sure, he can man the 5 in small-ball lineups. He’s not a full-time big man. Should that disqualify the Spurs from being interested in him?
Absolutely not. Let’s assume that Wembanyama will spend some time at the 5. Having two interchangeable combo big will not be a bad thing.
Meanwhile, the Spurs can still find a more traditional big man elsewhere.

We like the match here. The Spurs may feel differently. If they’re narrowly focused on using their resources to land a big, they may pass on Washington.
Could this next team be interested in him?
