The San Antonio Spurs are expected to pursue a point guard this offseason to add alongside Victor Wembanyama, with one potential target believed to be Trae Young. Wembanyama is believed to at least be “intrigued” by the possibility of the Spurs trading for Young.
“I will say I’ve talked to people who know Wemby who have indicated he is at least intrigued by that idea,” said Tim MacMahon on The Hoop Collective podcast. “Now, intrigued by that idea and pounding the table are two very different things. I have no idea whether Gregg Popovich would be intrigued by the idea.”
“He’s not classically a Popovich player, Trae Young,” said Brian Windhorst.
The theory of the Spurs trading for Young is that he would vastly improve their offense, while Wembanyama is a special enough defensive player to help reduce Young’s defensive limitations.
San Antonio is in a unique situation to trade for Young as they own two lottery picks in this year’s draft and also control Atlanta’s draft for the next three years.
