Jayden Quaintance is still just 18-years-old and stands 6’9, 253 lbs with a mammoth 7’5 wingspan
Has all the physical tools to be an All-Defensive calibre player in the NBA
A defensive lineup of Harper-Castle-Bryant-Quaintance-Wemby would be unmatched 🔒
Rich Paul reveals he had Darius Garland lined up for a trade to the Spurs prior to the Fox trade, and that Fox had no problem with being the #2 behind Wemby:
"I remember a trade getting ready to take place and De'Aaron and I were talking about it, and we were talking about different options where he could go etc, and obviously I had the Spurs kinda teed up..
At first it wasn't De'Aaron, it was another guard that I represent that I was envisioning going there, because De'Aaron wasn't wanting to be traded yet..
It was Darius Garland. He was flustered, he was frustrated and he wanted to get out.. and the Spurs before they got the 2nd pick, they needed a point guard. And I thought next to Wemby, with shooting and all that. And then things changed and he was fine.
And then so now Mike Brown got fired.. and so in De'Aaron's case when he finally got to the point to where ‘you know what it's probably time’, and we're having a conversation, one of the things we talked about was: OK if you get to the Spurs, are you OK being number 2?
And (Fox) didn't even flinch.
'Absolutely, absolutely.'"

WEMBY JUST DROPPED A BAR:
"The lack of experience is a strength of us...because we could do impossible stuff because we don't know it's impossible" 🥶

Dunking on the player who raised the MVP you wanted right in front of you and your biggest rival since you were 16 at the same time.
This is the greatest picture of all time.
Puka is an alcoholic but not one peep from espn
Mike Vrabel is cracking a national reporter not one peep
Cowboys and Pickens having a contract extension showdown not one peep
Dexter Lawrence asked for a trade not one peep
The ravens sabotaged their own trade not one peep
Looking at the final standings, I see Giannis' Bucks won 32 games. Steph's Warriors won 37.
I'm reminded that Tim Duncan is the ONLY player to have 50 wins or more EVERY season of his career (*1999 equates to 60) and the ONLY player to make the playoffs all 19 seasons.
YE IS THE ONLY ARTIST THAT PUSHES ART THIS FAR. THIS IS WHY WE LOVE HIM. THIS IS WHY HE’S THE GOAT! THIS IS WHY WE NEVER GIVE UP ON HIM. WE LOVE YOU YE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ARTISTRY. UNBELIEVABLE
Deaaron Fox hasn’t gotten enough credit this year for:
letting Castle take a leap
not interfering with Wemby MVP push
taking Harper under his wing
and STILL making the ASG
Fox picked San Antonio as his preferred destination and adopted the “Spurs way” instantly.
