The San Antonio Spurs enraged the fans of the NBA’s other 29 ball clubs when they pulled off getting the top pick to draft French forward phenom Victor Wembanyama. But what if they found a way to land another potential superstar to pair him with?
Those angry fans would likely be rioting in the streets if the Spurs found a way to draft rising NCAA wunderkind Cooper Flagg, who is widely seen as the top player coming out of his draft class. The Maine native is planning to attend Duke for his one-and-done season at that level. Might San Antonio still be in rebuilding mode for that draft?
It is an intriguing scenario to think about, and one that would likely set the Spurs up to win titles for a decade or longer given the rules of the new CBA.
But how likely is it? YouTuber Six Rings of Steel broke it down in a clip he released last month. Check it out for yourself to hear his thoughts on Cooper plus Wemby in San Antonio.
