In Sandro Mamukelashvili, the #Spurs just might have found a player who can follow in the playmaking footsteps of the international players who formed the core of 2014 Finals “The Beautiful Game”: Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker and Boris Diaw.

Lillard also talked about his loyalty to Portland, which is partly tied to how he wants to win a ring — the way Dirk Nowitzki and Giannis Antetokounmpo did, with the team and city that drafted them. “I just have a way that I want to get things done for myself… I just have my stance on what I want to see happen, but in this business, you just never know.” -via NBC Sports / April 1, 2023

“No disrespect to OTE and college, but Scoot is playing in a league where billionaire owners are sending their players down to practice to play to get better,” Hart said to Andscape. “Billionaires are taking it seriously. Everybody judging Scoot should take it seriously that he has been playing pro ball for two years. He is like a two-year veteran at the pro level. When he does get to an NBA team, no disrespect to who he is playing with now, but he is going to be playing with NBA rotation players. “So, he is going to look even better in the NBA. Now [in the NBA] he is playing with that 40% 3-point shooter. Now he is playing with that veteran NBA center and small forward. The court is going to open up even more for him. It’s going to be crazy. People are going to be like, ‘Damn, we overjudged.’ People are always talking about, ‘Can he shoot?’ I played with Tony Parker when he was a rookie. He wasn’t a shooter.” -via Andscape / March 29, 2023
