Spurs Get Big Man to Plug Paint

The Spurs just pulled off a bold move, trading up to snag Tarris Reed Junior—26th overall—out of UConn, where he helped lead them to the national championship game. Standing 6’10” and packing 260 pounds with a huge wingspan, Reed brings exactly what San Antonio needs: a physical, paint-dominating presence to support Victor Wembanyama. He’s not chasing stardom—he’s ready to grind, rebound, and battle in the paint, something the Spurs desperately needed after struggling on the boards last season. With Jayden Quaintance sidelined, Reed’s expected to see significant minutes right away, and his mindset? Perfect. He’s built for the grind, and if he delivers, the Spurs’ frontcourt just got a lot tougher. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
