A Way-Too-Early List of San Antonio Spurs 2021 Draft Prospects

The San Antonio Spurs need to be scouting these 2021 NBA Draft prospects

Before the season, there were predictions that the San Antonio Spurs would make another trip to the NBA Draft Lottery in 2021. But as the Spurs currently hold the fourth spot in the Western Conference, it’s time to put the dreams of drafting Evan Mobley will have to be put on hold.

Even outside of the top-ten, this draft class is still deep with talent. Regardless of where the Spurs end up drafting, they’re going to have options. And given their track record of identifying and developing talent over the past few years, you have to feel good about their chances of coming away from this class with a valuable player to build around.

We recently identified some dark horse prospects that the Spurs should have their eyes on but they should be looking higher up the board as well. Here are a few more frontcourt prospects they should be doing their research on.
