It was just 2 weeks ago that San Antonio exercised the 3rd year (2023-24) team option for Josh Primo.
He is under contract for $4.1M and $4.3M.
He is eligible to be claimed with room or an exception but a team will have to do its diligence on why the 19-year old was waived. – 7:31 PM

Josh Primo just got waived by the Spurs. Makes no sense. He was out Wednesday with a glute injury. But this is very strange to waive a first round pick with obvious upside. Clearly more to it. – 7:28 PM

RC Buford on the shocking release of Josh Primo: “It is our hope that, in the long run, this decision will serve the best interest of both the organization and Joshua.”
Strange. Primo is only 19 and in his second year. I’m sure we’ll learn more about this in the coming days. – 7:28 PM

The NBA’s official injury report is listing Devin Vassell and Josh Primo as OUT again tonight.
Teams submit those reports daily, but Spurs haven’t yet made it official today. So, potentially subject to change. Did not see either on the court following shootaround today, though. – 12:53 PM

More on this storyline
Matthew Tynan: The Spurs have recalled Malaki Branham and Blake Wesley ahead of their game against Chicago in San Antonio tomorrow. A little insurance policy after both Devin Vassell and Josh Primo sat out last night with various injuries. -via Twitter @Matthew_Tynan / October 27, 2022
Tom Orsborn: Primo is out, Pop said, after that hard fall he took Monday night on his backside. Pop also said he’s not sure how long Vassell (sore left knee) will be out. -via Twitter @tom_orsborn / October 26, 2022
Tom Orsborn: Vassell (sore left knee) is doubtful for tomorrow, per Spurs. Primo had a huge ice pack on his lower back in the locker room last night after a hard spill, but he’s not on the injury report. -via Twitter @tom_orsborn / October 25, 2022
