Right on cue. Devin Vassell is officially back in the 210 and already locked in for the summer. His grind to improve for next season starts now. 🔒🔥 #PorVida

Mike Brown tells a story about what he learned from Gregg Popovich:
“I learned this from my time in San Antonio never forget at the end of my first year we as meeting as a staff Pop says, he’s mumbling under his breath I got to thank Tim Duncan, I’m thinking you got to thank Tim Duncan why you saying that? And he said he used to call me Mikey “He said Mikey if you’re best player doesn’t allow you to coach him you have no shot at coaching anybody else on the team and Tim allows me to do it.” And I will say this man to my left allowed me to coach him which allowed me to coach the rest of the team and made my job easier. So, thank you both.”

What a special season man.
I don’t care what anyone says, I’ll still remember it positively. NOBODY expected us to be a playoff lock, let alone be IN THE FINALS while having zero experience.
I’m more excited for next season than I’ve been in a long time, always #PorVida
Victor Wembanyama (in French) is asked what he is looking to improve on over the summer:
🇫🇷: Victor, after these Finals, what do you want to improve the most this summer? On the court or off the court, what area of improvement have you identified for yourself before next season?
👽: I'm going to work even harder, obviously, to be even more durable and, above all, to keep a fresh mind and maintain control of the game at all times. That's what really stands out about Jalen Brunson, for example. There are too many moments—and it doesn't come from bad intentions—but there are too many moments where I'm passive, where I don't have the control over the game that I'd like to have, and it ends up costing us.
