Season preview: The DeRozan-Aldridge Spurs must either adapt or fall

Another season of Spurs basketball is about to start, and the Silver and Black is at a crossroads. The youth movement continues, but the core still features several veterans on contract years. If things go well, next season’s roster could be similar to this one’s. If they don’t, change will be inevitable and welcomed.

Of course, it’s important to determine what would constitute as things going well. The West is as stacked as ever, and the Spurs have been trending down in the standings over the past two years. It might be too optimistic to expect them to bounce back and make the playoffs outright, but the 10th seed and a play-in opportunity seem within reach.
