    Inside Spurs' Draft, Kawhi Rumors, and San Antonio's Free Agency Targets

    The Spurs and the brave podcasters who cover them have barely had time to recover from San Antonio's run to the NBA Finals, and the offseason is already in full swing. What moves will the Spurs make this summer to turn this contender into a champion?Hosts Tom Petrini and Zach Montana break down the draft haul for San Antonio, and what they could accomplish via the trade market and/or free agency. Will the rumors of a Kawhi Leonard reunion amount to anything?We spoke to GM Brian Wright after the first round of the 2026 draft, where his war room selected two very different big-man prospects in Jayden Quaintance and Tarris Reed Jr. In the second round, they grabbed Ja'Kobi Gillespie and Maliq Brown.With the center position squared away, it seems likely San Antonio will look to bring in a forward. Former Spur Sandro Mamukelashvili could be available, and John Collins and Rui Hachimura have both been reportedly linked to San Antonio. Tobias Harris could be in the cards, but what about LeBron James, who at 41 could be the LeBron James of Tobias Harrises?And then fine, we'll talk about the Kawhi Leonard stuff.
