The forward spots have been tough for the Spurs to figure out in recent years. After mostly abandoning two big men units, San Antonio has been trying to find the right pairings that can provide the benefits of smaller lineups while not giving up a big edge on the boards and defense. It’s been a tough balance to strike.
This upcoming season might be the one in which the Spurs finally find something that works. In the past few months, the franchise has acquired several players who should allow them to play different styles and give the Silver and Black a versatile and intriguing forward corps.
