Spurs Talk

● By L.J. Ellis
The San Antonio Spurs will have three picks in the 2023 NBA Draft. As it stands, we know that the Spurs will have one of the top seven picks in the draft and two selections in the second round. San Antonio’s second round pick will be 32 or 33, while a second round pick the Spurs are owed from the Toronto Raptors will either be 43 or 44. In the coming days, the NBA will conduct tiebreakers to determine the draft order for teams that ended the season with identical records. If the Spurs win the tiebreaker against the Houston Rockets, San Antonio will be guaranteed a top six pick in the draft and will get the 33rd overall selection. If the Spurs lose the tiebreaker, they’ll be guaranteed a top seven selection in the draft and the 32nd pick. On May 16th, the NBA Draft Lottery will take place. By finishing with one of the three worst records in the league, the Spurs, Rockets and Detroit Pistons have the best odds of winning the lottery and ending up with the top pick.
