San Antonio Spurs

Bryn Forbes, Davis Bertans, Dejounte Murray

Did you even know that the Spurs have three rookies on their team? I sure didn’t. The three Spurs rookies have logged a good amount of games considering the number of vets on the team.

However, Pop is known for sitting his star players, which gives the younger players more opportunities for playing time. Of the three rookies, none has really separated himself from the rest of the pack.

Dejounte Murray, more than the others (I would say), has had his moments throughout the season. He has the potential. Bertans has the ability to spread the floor, which offers clear value in today’s NBA, too.
