ESPN’s Bobby Marks reveals the “priorities” of the San Antonio Spurs built around Victor Wenbanyara

The San Antonio Spurs have many options this offseason, but the areas they need should be prioritized.

In theory, the San Antonio Spurs can make any move they want this offseason. In the second overall pick of the 2025 NBA Draft, they can add anyone other than Cooper Flag, and they are linked to premier trade candidates from Giannis Antetocommapo and Kevin Durant.

Plus, they boast a legitimate goat contender for Dearon Fox’s franchise point guard, Stefon Castle’s Rookie of the Year and Victor Wenbanyama. It’s safe to say the Spurs are in one of the best positions this summer.

The Spurs can keep track of the course and draft second and 14th drafts (and 38th) overall, but they will need to address some flaws, such as shooting and frontcourt depth. Wenbanyama was great, but when he was out of court, there are some clear flaws in the spur.

The spurs behind Wenbanyama threw a lot into the wall, but nothing stuck.

Zach Collins, Charles Bassey, Bismack Biyombo and even fan favorite Sandro Mamukelashvili are flawed in backups too. The Spurs can’t find the perfect player. Finding the backup behind Wenby must be a major priority, as these talented players are just starters in the league.

“If you get a Victor rim protector, that’s a priority,” suggested Bobby Marks of ESPN. “When he’s on the bench, and when Victor leaves the court this season, eight points per 100 get worse.”

The Spurs have a way to make large-scale moves, but such movements would be of little use to strengthen the frontcourt. Even if you add Giannis, the second unit does not have rim protection.

“Whenever someone asks me, ‘Well, who’s the team that can go out and make big deals?’ Houston and San Antonio,” Marks continued. “They’ve had a great position for a team that hasn’t made the playoffs here for a long time and have gone through this reset of their roster.”

The flashy moves may give the talk show host something to make headlines and fill the airtime, but it’s not the move needed to put Spurs in the playoffs.

The Spurs will draft guard Dylan Harper overall, assuming they have a draft pick. Behind Flagg, he is clearly the second best player and it makes no sense to draft for the second fit. That’s how you end up with Darko Milithic or Hassim Tabeat instead of Dwyane Wade or James Harden.

However, on the 14th pick, the Spurs have some flexibility. Big names like Derik Queen, Thomas Sorber, or Wembanyama’s friend Maxime Raynaud are still on the board. Spurs can swipe them.

Proven veteran free agents Clint Capella and Brook Lopez are affordable and the Spurs can also push. Miles Turner (free agent) and Nick Claxton (trade) may be a little too rich for San Antonio, but there are many options.

In a deep draft, it’s easy to overlook the 14th pick, but the Spurs could fill the space needed to make that choice.
