Spurs Draft Reactions & More | In the Building | EP. 590

The draft is in the books, and while Spurs fans may not have gotten a flashy headline move, Mike Taylor and Rudy Jay see something more important: roster balance. The guys break down San Antonio drafting Jayden Quaintance and Terrace Reed, two bigs who immediately address the team’s biggest weakness after getting bullied physically during the Finals run. Mike and Rudy both agree the front office prioritized toughness, depth, and long-term development over splash. Terrace Reed gets a lot of love as a plug-and-play contributor who can rebound, defend, and provide much-needed physicality behind Victor Wembanyama. Jayden Quaintance brings more intrigue as the high-upside swing, with the only major concern being his recovery from injury. Beyond the draft, the conversation shifts to De’Aaron Fox’s future, Brian Wright’s public support of Fox and Mitch Johnson, and why Spurs fans may need to accept that this core is staying together for now. As always, the hoops talk is mixed with golf rants, TV recommendations, and completely unhinged side conversations.
