From yesterday: Come for the goofy photo, stay for a convo about why the rumored Spurs pursuit of Austin Reaves is not likely to happen.
One can argue about fit, role, playing time, etc… but it’s the Early Bird road blocks that make this a tough sell: matthewtynan.substack.com/p/san-antonio-… pic.twitter.com/igYNupA9iQ – 10:51 AM

There have been recent rumors surrounding the Spurs’ potential interest in free-agent-to-be Austin Reaves, and it just doesn’t make much sense.
Not even necessarily from a roster standpoint, but from a logistical perspective: matthewtynan.substack.com/p/san-antonio-… pic.twitter.com/znRE8173Ie – 3:27 PM

Don’t expect the Spurs to pursue Austin Reaves this summer — not because of “patience” or “staying the course,” but because of cap logistics, and the quagmire his free agency presents: matthewtynan.substack.com/p/san-antonio-… pic.twitter.com/QZVVY0k6uM – 6:34 AM
