NBA teams who should target Kristaps Porzingis: San Antonio Spurs

The idea of Gregg Popovich and the San Antonio Spurs resurrecting Kristaps’ career just makes too much sense if the Mavs indeed shop the big man during the offseason. This is not a franchise that wants a long rebuild and as the team’s young players continue to progress, Kristaps could be a player that excels in a primary role for the team.

Plus, there might not be any better coaching that Kristaps could get at this point in his career than in San Antonio. Pop has proven that he can coach any type of player and has the utmost respect from nearly everyone around the NBA.

What has been lost during this year’s playoff run is that Kristaps is still a really good player. Even though he left much to be desired from the Mavs, there’s no question that he’s still one of the most talented bigs in the league. And, when he’s healthy, he can absolutely still help a team in a big way.
