In the eyes of many people, the Spurs' operation is a waste of draft picks. They think Primo is at most a second-round pick. Choosing him with the No. 12 draw is a huge draw.

At the 2021 NBA Draft , Spurs used the No. 12 pick to choose Josh Primo, because of this incident, the Spurs were ridiculed.

In the eyes of many people, the Spurs' operation is a waste of draft picks. They think Primo is at most a second-round pick. Choosing him with the No. 12 draw is a huge draw.

Some media broke the news that the Spurs did not plan to choose Primo with the No. 12 draw at the beginning, but later it was reported that other teams were also very interested in Primo. This scared the Holy City executives, afraid that they would be robbed of love, so they took the initiative and took him off with the No. 12 draw early.

After being selected by the Spurs, did Primo realize his talent in NBA? This made fans very curious. Let’s take a look together today.

Primo has only played 5 games so far in the new season, averaging only 5.2 minutes of playing time. He averaged 1 shot per game, hit 0.8 goals, scored 2.2 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.4 assists.

At present, the Spurs do not intend to give Primo too much playing time this season, and he will sometimes be transferred to the Development League.

Popovich once commented on Primo: He has shown his ability to move and confidence that is inconsistent with his age. As such a young player, his understanding of the game is truly amazing.

Popovich believes Primo can become a good shooter.

Primo was very calm in the game. He had rich offensive skills. He could attack with the ball and play without the ball. He could use the rhythm to get rid of his opponents. He could break through, make jump shots at mid-range, and shoot three-pointers. In the preseason game, he played very efficiently, playing for 17.7 minutes in the first game, making 7 of 8 shots, including 3 of 4 three-pointers, scoring 17 points.

He averaged 9.8 minutes per game throughout the preseason, scored 5.8 points, 1 rebound and 1.2 assists, shot 63.2% from the field and 50% from the three-point shooting percentage. In a very limited time, it is very good to be able to hand over such a report card.

Primo is only 18 years old this year. He is 1.98 meters tall and may grow taller in the future.

hope he will not let down the Spurs' high expectations, train hard to make himself stronger.

Next Leonard , when will it appear in the Spurs again?
