Dejounte Murray, Derek White, and keldon Johnson were all drafted at 29. All three of them great between high level rotation player to borderline All-Star, to actual all-star. Devin Versailles drafted outside the top 10 and definitely goes top six in a redraft. Guys like Jones probably go borderline lottery and he was a second round pick.
Spurs consistently punch above their weight when it comes to draft talent and developing on heralded players and now they actually have a heavy heading draft selection to work with.
That’s without mentioning guys other teams discarded and then got turned into sought after role players by the Spurs like Danny Green and Poetl. Guys who the league thought were garbage/ on their last legs who came to SA and rehabbed their image/ extended their careers like Aldridge, Derozan and Rudy Gay.
