Spurs Fiesta 5: Luka Doncic Trade Rumors Swirling to San Antonio
1. LUKA SHAKEUP IN SAN ANTONIO?
"If the Dallas Mavericks were to trade Luka Doncic this offseason, it would send Texas-size shockwaves throughout the league ... especially if he stayed in the Lone Star State."
"He's going to be a heck of a player," Popovich said. "He shoot the ball well, and he's going to be getting in charged ... He's progressed fantastically and physicality ... [and] growing in confidence, and understanding that defense has to become more important. So he's been wonderful."
"It's a big thing for me to just be healthy," Vassell said. "This offseason is going to be big for me to [develop] a plan and making sure I'm healthy. I don't want to play half of a season, or sit and not play back-to-backs ... ever again."
