Spurs Eye Free Agency Moves to Bolster Wembanyama’s Team
The San Antonio Spurs are strategically planning their moves for the upcoming free agency period, as they aim to build a competitive team around their young star, Victor Wembanyama. Their decisions will be crucial as they strive to improve from last season’s performance and contend in the Western Conference.
Potential Free Agency Targets
After a season where the Spurs finished with a 34-48 record, the team is looking to add experienced players. With key players like De’Aaron Fox, Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson, and Harrison Barnes returning, the Spurs have a solid foundation. The team has flexibility, with limited big names hitting free agency.
According to reports, the Spurs are poised to pursue Guerschon Yabusele in free agency. Yabusele, a French national, played alongside Wembanyama in the 2024 Paris Olympics, which could make him an appealing addition.
The team could also pursue Luke Kornet. The Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks are anticipated to be competitors for the French forward.
