'All my expectations are really to learn and how to win as quick as possible,' No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama told reporters.
Spurs Coach Gregg Popovich speaks to reporters at the team's media day event on Monday.
Even so, the Hall of Fame coach stopped short of calling the franchise a championship contender, even with the addition of No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama. Popovich continued:"Of course, we add a player with Victor's capabilities, and your prospects look a lot better. But this year, with development, I think one of the important factors to enhance that development is winning. So winning is as important this year as learning last year. So, they've got to continue to learn. But, adding more wins, I think, is appropriate, mandatory and helpful.
While it might be unrealistic to assume 19-year-old rookie Wembanyama can lead the Spurs to a championship or even a deep playoff run, forward Devin Vassell said the season looks promising.
