Spurs upgrade young core on long team friendly deals. It is likely that the spurs can acquire these talented youthful stars for pennies on the dollar. This is a must at the deadline since most of their FRP may not convert bc of lottery protections. They need to move the picks now while they still have value. This also makes the Spurs led by savvy veteran point guard Chris Paul a legitimate threat in the playoffs right now!

Most teams can't afford the contracts of Markkanen and Claxton. But as the salary cap expands in a couple of years these contract will become more manageable. Worst case scenario, the spurs can flip these players in the future for better FRP's.

They should also look to sign unsigned FA talents Mac Mclung, Jalen McDaniels, and Markelle Fultz who can find significant value under Pop in the spurs system.

Give Wemby the talent, and he will deliver.
