DEC 13 SPURS SEND SCOUTS TO WATCH TOPIC Nikola Topic, one of the highest-rated point guards in the upcoming draft class. The San Antonio Spurs sent three staff members to watch the Serbian Mega Basket star.

Adam Glessner (Senior Director of Basketball Intelligence), Claudio Crippa (Director of International Scouting), and scout Dragan Janjic were all in attendance. Topic scored 21 points, grabbed five rebounds, and dished out five assists in the 10-point loss. 

DEC 11 CARLTON CARRINGTON NAMED ACC ROOKIE OF THE WEEK. The freshmen wing averaged 16 points last week and took home the ACC Rookie of the Week.

There have been concerns that Carrington would not be able to maintain his red-hot start, but he was won the award in three of the last five weeks and averages 14.9 points on 35 percent shooting from deep this season. 

DEC 8 SARR SCORES 13 POINTS IN NBL off the bench as the Perth Wildcats fell to the Illawarra Hawks. Alexandre Sarr added 13 points, on six-of-eight shooting inside the arc. He added five rebounds and two blocks. 

Sarr recorded 16 points, the highest of his NBL career, on November 6. He is one of the top prospects in the 2024 NBA Draft.

NOV 30 SPURS LAND TOP PICK IN ESPN DRAFT and select Isaiah Collier, the highest-ranked point guard in the class of 2024. The physical and oversized PG is described as the perfect pick-and-roll partner for Victor Wembanyama. In nine games with the USC Trojans, Collier is averaging 17 points, 4.2 assists, and shoots 32 percent from deep.
