The San Antonio Spurs hosted their annual media day, providing fans their first glimpse into the rebuilding process and all the youngsters who joined the organization this summer. Training camp also started this week, which marks the end of an uneventful offseason following a surprising trade that sent Dejounte Murray to the Atlanta Hawks.

Gregg Popovich has been forthcoming about prioritizing development this upcoming season, even lightheartedly telling local media members not to head to Vegas and bet on them winning a championship. Though the tone has been lighthearted, we learned minor injuries could put Josh Primo and Keldon Johnson on the sidelines until opening day.
