While it’s evident that there’s some crowding in the San Antonio Spurs backcourt, which is a good problem to have, there’s less certainty regarding the frontcourt. Though he’s aging like fine wine, former All-NBA big man LaMarcus Aldridge has only one year left on his contract and his future with the organization is partly uncertain.
Furthermore, the team’s only true center, Jakob Poeltl is a restricted free agent this offseason and considering how limited the free agency pool is going to be compared to next year’s stacked 2021 class, some team with cash burning a hole in its pocked might snatch him away.
