But more than fans and friends are taking note and now the NBA is preparing for who Lonnie Walker IV is as a player:
Some strong words from an NBA basketball ops person on #Spurs rookie guard Lonnie Walker IV: “He’s been the best player in Vegas. He can score, he’s a great athlete. Plus, he’s strong and he’s aware. He knows what’s going on out there. I think he’s going to be a star.”

Good to know the Spurs drafted an intelligent, well-rounded, generous, hard-working player who is already turning heads. And the 2018-19 season hasn’t even tipped off.
