How did San Antonio Spurs fans react to Lonnie Walker IV as the No. 18 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft?
The San Antonio Spurs entered the 2018 NBA Draft with the No. 18 pick in the first round. It’s their highest-owned pick since the 1997 NBA Draft, when Tim Duncan went No. 1 overall. This time around, the selection became Lonnie Walker IV, a shooting guard from Miami.
