NBA Power Rankings: Lakers eyeing big move; Clippers are broken?
25. San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs have not won many games this season but they’ve quickly become one of the more entertaining teams to watch. While everyone is going to quickly jump to the addition of Victor Wembanyama (and understandably so) as the biggest reason why, the Spurs have several other young players who deserve at least some attention over the course of the next few months of the regular season.
That list begins with Devin Vassell, who has had a superb start to the season. He’s averaging 17 points and four rebounds on 50 percent shooting from the field and 43 percent shooting from 3-point range. He’s been a great running mate for Wemby this season and he’s still getting better as a player.
Keldon Johnson and Jeremy Sochan are two other young players the Spurs should be excited about moving forward as well. What I’m looking for the most with the Spurs is how much they improve over the course of the season. By February and March, the Spurs should be a much better version of what they are today.
