Friday marked the return of Lonnie Walker IV to San Antonio and brought with it, as basically any reunion does in the NBA nowadays, a tribute video from the Spurs. That’s not to say Walker, who spent four seasons and over 200 games in a Spurs uniform, didn’t deserve it.
But tribute videos are given to about everyone in the league. The Lakers gave Avery Bradley one during the preseason last year despite him playing just 49 games with the team at that point. These aren’t specifically bad, it’s just a more common occurrence than in years and generations past.
