Spurs Fiesta 5: Joel Embiid Trade to San Antonio?
"Even though the MVP would be nice to have, the Spurs will pass on him for the chance to have Wembanyama ... someone who could smash Embiid's ceiling."
""It would be an honor [to play for Popovich] for sure," Wembanyama said in a French interview. "From what I've heard, he's demanding, but one thing I know for sure is that he's good, and until proven otherwise, he has more experience than I do.
"If I have the chance to be coached by Pop, it will be with a lot of humility and excitement."
"Reaves averaged 13 points per game while shooting nearly 40 percent from beyond the three-point line and would be an immediate positive should he join the Spurs."
"At the rim, Porzingis is an established shot-blocker, averaging 1.5 blocks per game to earn a top-15 average in the league. He averages more than eight rebounds, while also bringing a strong 3-point shot to any team, shooting nearly 40 percent over the last two seasons."
