Woj: San Antonio to convert Dominick Barlow to standard NBA contract

A 6-foot-9 swingman who is still just 20 years old, Barlow has flashed hints he may have untapped upside.

It seems that the San Antonio Spurs front office likes what they have seen so far this season from Spurs two way power forward Dominick Barlow. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the “San Antonio Spurs are converting two way (forward) Dominick Barlow to a standard NBA contract” for the rest of the 2023-24 NBA season.

“Barlow — undrafted in 2022 — has played 51 games in his two Spurs seasons,” adds Woj of the Overtime Elite alumnus. This season with San Antonio, Barlow has been putting up 4.6 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game in 13.3 minutes of floor time per game with the Spurs.

A 6-foot-9 swingman who is still just 20 years old, Barlow has flashed hints he may have untapped upside, hitting 42.9% from beyond the arc on very limited attempts this season.

His free throw percentage — a career 67.8% — suggests there is still plenty of work yet to be done in that regard, but has shown signs of improvement when shooting from beyond 10 feet from the basket this season.
