Outside of Rudy Gay, the San Antonio Spurs didn’t have many reliable wings on their roster last season.
Davis Bertans had his moments, but Gregg Popovich has never been able to fully trust his talented Latvian forward. Quincy Pondexter and Dante Cunningham only saw the floor in garbage time by the end of the season, and the rest of the players on the roster were either guards or big men.
Luckily there are a lot of multi-talented wings in today’s NBA, but they are becoming more and more coveted each year.
