San Antonio Spurs: NBA Draft history at the 49th pick

In the 2018 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs will own not just the No. 18 pick in the first round but the No. 49 overall selection, which is part of the second round. This part of the draft does not usually introduce star players, although the Spurs selected Manu Ginobili late in the second round of the 1999 NBA Draft.

However, the selection show can offer NBA quality players at any point. Fans have seen players go No. 1 overall and be out of the league within a few years (Anthony Bennett) or produce quality stats from the final pick (Isaiah Thomas).
