San Antonio Spurs
Returning Goods: Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Kawhi Leonard
2014-15 Breakout Player: Cory Joseph
Word: With Patty Mills out for the beginning of the NBA season, there is going to be a chance for Cory Joseph to assume a role for the Spurs this season — even if it is just for a moment. I believe that he’ll make the most of his opportunity and Gregg Popovich will be forced to find a place in the rotation for the three-year veteran.
