The San Antonio Spurs’ 2018-2019 season was full of surprises, both good and bad. Dejounte Murray succumbed to a torn ACL before the year began, and Bryn Forbes filled the shoes of several injured guards better than anyone anticipated.
We knew the combo-guard could knock down the three-ball with pinpoint precision, but few could have predicted the drastic rise in his efficiency. While most role players struggle to maintain their level of play when thrust into the starting lineup, Forbes thrived in an unfamiliar role.
Bryn notched career-highs in literally every statistical category and started in all but one of San Antonio’s 89 combined regular-season and playoff games.
