The Spurs’ young wings still have to earn Marco Belinelli’s minutes

There are not a lot of Spurs fans who want to see Marco Belinelli hold on to his rotation spot in the upcoming season. There are just so many more exciting options to choose from for those 20 minutes a game, including Lonnie Walker IV and even rookie Keldon Johnson.

Exciting isn’t always better, though. For all his flaws, Belinelli is still a competent NBA player, and the Spurs will need as many of those as they can get if they hope to keep their playoff streak alive. Unless one of the young guys truly proves to be a better option, he might hold on to his role for another year.
