San Antonio Spurs: Kyle Anderson

Entering his third NBA season, the 6-foot-9 swing man is still being overshadowed by the San Antonio Spurs franchise cornerstone Kawhi Leonard.

Consequently, Anderson won’t even be considered as a starter. Although Anderson only averaged 16 minutes per game last season, he has proved his worth. While winning the NBA Summer League MVP, Anderson averaged 22 points and six rebounds.

Anderson will come out of his shell off the bench and show us what he did in the NBA Summer League. He could be in this league for a very long time and, eventually down the road, he will be a starter for someone, it’s just a matter of when and where.
