Spurs starting five decisions to begin season will be fascinating. Probably penciling in Fox, Harper, Vassell, Barnes, Wemby but it is with the thinnest of graphite – 5:13 PM

That’s more annually than Victor Wembanyama, the San Antonio Spurs’ rising star, who’s making $13.7 million. “Does Smith deserve to earn more than Wemby?” Kyrie Irving asked rhetorically—highlighting the strange optics of a broadcaster out-earning a generational basketball talent. -via BasketNews / July 12, 2025
