be putting to the draft Spotlight Cody Williams and then but before we do that we’re going to catch up some Spurs news and notes it’s quite a handful to get up uh up to speed and then talk about you guys locked on Spurs fans you guys are leaving a lot of comments we’re going to be discussing those today’s episode is brought to you by FanDuel make every moment more it’s the sports app that you want to get right now FanDuel is hooking up all customers with a boost or a bonus daily that’s right there’s something for everyone every day all summer long visit fanduel.com lockon to get started yeah can you believe it it is draft week draft is this Wednesday a lot of Spurs fans are talking about it on social media the Spurs have picks four and eight and that’s what you’re hearing a lot right now especially uh in the chatter right now let’s kick things off and hey look is there were there smoke there’s fire situation here according to mark Stein uh SAR Alexander SAR is projected to go number two overall to Washington but according to Stein um San Antonio still has interest jumping up from 4 to one and they want to make a deal with Hawks it’s not the first time this report has surfaced as like the second time is there smoke is there smoke is there fire will the Spurs pull the trigger and Trade four and eight all the way up to number one or just make some sort of deal to get to number one yeah we’ll see you know um with the could the Spurs mortgage 4 and8 for number one I can see that yeah I mean one b of the Apple versus two B of the Apple but is the number one pick B of the apple and if SAR is their guy probably they’ll go after him but I don’t think so I think it’s probably Risha the Spurs have been scouting him for quite a long time uh he even told me himself that he’s aware the Spurs have been scouting him so if they do make a move I think it’ll be for Risha Shay another Spurs Draft news uh projected pick to Jane Saloon is uh well he’s some mocks have him going high as you know top 10 maybe top 15 but ACC to report uh seems like a few days ago Salon suffered an injury during a pre-draft workout with the Spurs and according to the report uh you know he has cancelled a lot of the workouts that he has ahead of him but uh interesting to know because uh you know I said some mocks have the Spurs picking him you know some fans want the Spurs to pick him they feel he’s a sleeper pick to go as high you know history if there’s a lesson there to be learn from history the Spurs had made shocking first round picks remember the whole Josh Primo pick everybody was stunned uh when the Spurs picked him early in the first round uh who say that Salon will be another shocking pick and if he is you know he’s very raw wouldn’t be surprised if he sees time in the G league but at least according to a report he got hurt during a pre-draft workout some fans think it’s just all to get a game the Spurs are being the Spurs and saying there was an injury maybe they on him but that’s the latest when it comes to Salon the French uh guy that wants to be in the NBA and he he’ll likely get called but will he go to San Antonio that remains to be seen in other SPS news we keep with the draft the or Yahoo sports is reporting that San Antonio has made the number eight pick available that does shake things up in the draft this Wednesday you know uh in a draft pool that’s considered tepid you know do the Spurs uh make a move to at least bolster themselves to a position where they can get a better player uh it would make sense for the Spurs to move up move down out of the Dr but for what and that that is the open question you know you you think about them using the pick uh again to Target their guy whether that’s a point guard like a Stefon Castle or is it Rish Shay we’ll see but as of now nobody has bitten on that at least to any report and you know look the Spurs can package that pick the number four pick players future draft picks whatever they can to move up if they want they have the cash they have the money they have the picks they have the players they can do it but will will they do it historically the Spurs don’t make a major major draft move like that uh maybe this year will be different we’ll see what Brian Wright and the whole Spurs Draft War Room staff has to say come Wednesday night other Spurs news look this should calm anybody’s nerves that think that wmy might be bolting when his uh first or his you know his first rookie cont extension goes out the window uh he put on social media happy oneye anniversary Spurs three hard emojis so he loves being in San Antonio and his good to hear that from him those Spurs fans are all about that tweet that uh wimy put out there or should I say the EXP poost that he put out there look he likes being a Spur he cried on the draft day you know that he’s a Spur he’s in the NBA you know he always that Coller you know that Jersey with a spur on it he points to it during the uh rookie sophomore game at the All-Star break 2024 so uh if you have any doubts that wimy is not being not happy being a spur and that tweet that he put out there a few days ago should calm your nerve and finally another Spurs news um Chris Haynes the NBA uh Well’s according to his sources he’s been told that the Spurs are expected to have interest in Tobias Harris keep keep listening to the words expected this is not a concrete report this is just speculative you know just like saying like you telling me that hey Jeff you know maybe you might be expected to watch the next anime because Al knows I’m a I’m a I’m a big nerd but yeah just keep that that in mind sometimes you know look at the wording when these reports come out again this is just the Spurs are reportedly expected to have ample interest Harris look if the Spurs do end up uh having interest in him and it becomes true that the Spurs make a deal for him wouldn’t be surprising you know he is a veteran uh you know he’s an All-Star you know he’s been in the league for quite some time double figure scoring career-wise you know could slide in and uh be another Bay for the Spurs to use compar with wimy but uh yeah it’ll be inter to see if the Spurs was for a major free agent this off season I always say wait till next free agent pool in 2025 that one’s a lot deeper and better but the Spurs go Tobias Harris you know would would be a bad pickup they do you know solve the need for a veteran uh presence there it is we’ll see what the Spurs do in the days to come free agencies ready about to be open they got the draft this week yes exciting time to see the Spurs continuing their rebuild when we get back we’re going to be joined by Jack Thompson we’re going to be discussing Cody Williams we’re going to put him in the draft Spotlight uh should the Spurs swing the fences for him with 4 eight what should the Spurs do with him if he’s on the board that’s next right here in lockdown Spurs hey but first I want to

awesome look at that look at that you know I have the American voice actor he does a promo for lock on Spurs that’s awesome yeah he does a promo for lock on Spurs yes pretty pretty cool there uh uh Jack I’m I’m pretty sure you’re uh you’re excited right now it’s just we’re just what two days away God we’re so close man two days away from the draft good Lord you know the mock drafts we’re gonna get into Cody Williams in just a few seconds but I mean the mock drafts are everywhere before we dive into the spotlight Williams I just want to get your opinion on this okay so the lock on NBA network uh last week we started doing our final mock in anticipation for this Wednesday okay so we’re at as of this recording we’re still at number five okay guys take forever you know what okay but I want to run you down one through four okay and tell me what you think so the mock started off with SAR going number one all right no surprise okay fine number two wizards they picked Donovan kingan okay interesting number three rockets they P they picked Reed okay I took rashay at four what do you think yeah I mean if rash is there at four it’s it’s tough to to argue not to take him I mean we’ve been clamoring over this guy for quite a while thinking he’s going to go number one or two so if he falls to four then that’s fantastic yeah by the way um the number six pick was offered and I didn’t know what to do I didn’t know what to do because at that time the the lock on Pistons hadn’t made their pick yet and by the way as of this recording they still haven’t made their pick yet so um I was wondering I I I talked to Pledger our good friend he was all take it because he he doesn’t want to lose castle that’s why he don’t want to because Castle’s still on the board so but the final mock everybody will be coming out I Le I hope by the uh by Wednesday so we can see who’s going where but but my point of that Jack is showing you that the mocks are all over the place I there really really are they I mean about SAR is probably the only one that’s certain to go one or two right at this point yeah it looks like it yeah yeah I’ve seen like uh I saw an article though that SAR is beginning to slide in people’s drafts so wow who really there’s there’s no no idea on how this is going to play out in a couple days all right well let’s go and start our draft Spotlight I think it might be our last one um probably you know I know I’m going to I’m going to bug Jack in a while to come back before Wednesday or at least on Wednesday but uh Jack Cody Williams you’ve been high on this kid you’ve been really high on this kid uh you’ve been asking me to put him in the spot actually you picked the next spotline you wanted him uh what do you like about Cody Willams why do you think he’d be a good pick for the Spurs uh he’s just that prototypical Wing that that you won in the league right now 68 super long athletic player high IQ he’s got basketball pedigree I mean we’ve seen what his older brother has become in his few years in the league and uh Cody Williams is a a higher talented player than his brother was so I see a lot of potential in this kid uh he shot 40% from three he shot 62% from two so I mean he’s he’s got the the offensive game he can put the ball in the bucket he’s very Dynamic finishing around the rim at not even over 200 pounds yet so once he gets that man’s frame on his body he’s he’s going to be a lethal offensive player I feel like he’s got great form and he’s a good shooter from three like I said 41% one of the higher percentages of the players that we’ve broken down in our Spotlight Series so yeah I think Cody Williams at eight is a tremendous tremendous value he’s I think he’s going to carve out a very good role for himself in the league for quite a long time yeah you talk about the pedigree you know his brothers doing things with OKC also too I like the fact that he was tapped to play with Team USA so that should tell you something that they feel he’s good enough to represent the US OFA you know he can defend I think one through four right he’s that versatile is he yeah definitely definitely um his handles are pretty good you know I’ve seen some footage of him good good handle on him can run an offense um create offense for himself I think that’s safe to say he can definitely generate points on his own um what about playing downhill you know that’s all it’s about this NBA just going downhill going downhill can he help spark uh the Spurs offense in that fashion yeah I mean like I said he he shot 62% from Two and yeah you know you got to imagine that I don’t have never seen his shot chart but you got to imagine most of that’s you know right around the rim I sure he’s taken some mid-range jumpers but most of that is definitely right around the rim so he’s already a fairly Elite finisher around the rim with his size and like I said once he gets you know that man’s body on him which is going to be necessary for his development in the in the league so once he gets that man’s body on him hits the weights I think he’s going to be a tremendous finisher going downhill I mean he’s a very crafty player High basketball IQ he’s got a good handle so getting downhill for him shouldn’t be a problem and I think he’s going to be able to create off the pass off the dribble and you know finishing in a straight line down to the rim so I I think like I said Cody Williams definitely got a chance to be a very good player in the league for quite a long time yeah um I’m looking at some of the measurables right now uh 68 with shoes 190 so there you go putting on a little bit more weight on him uh 7 foot1 wingspan and then a standing reach of 8T seven Ines this kid is long long definitely would cause havoc on both ends of the floor uh you I I what about the fit you know let’s talk about the the elephant in the room wimy does he fit with wimy in the wimy era yeah I think he definitely fits he’s a very unselfish player I mean he came into Colorado as a five star but he came into a team that already had two players who are also in this draft Tristan the Sila and uh man what was the Xavier I think the guard Simpson or something like that I can’t remember his name so he came into a team where he was already you know highly touted but he was not the top dog because he had two really good upper classman on his team so he knows uh how to play a role and how to thrive in that role obviously I mean he played himself into you know Lottery consideration throughout the year so I think coming into a team with wimy he knows that he’s never going to be the top dog he’s a very unselfish player he he knows you know he’s got a high basketball IQ so I’m not worried about him you know just focusing on his own numbers he’s a team guy so yeah I think Cody Williams with the fit on the Spurs at the three uh you know with Jeremy at the four and wimy at the five I feel like that’s a pretty Dynamic you know front court so I I like Cody Williams fit with the Spurs a lot I think you know he comes in he can shoot the ball already he can get downhill he knows what the NBA is about he’s got his older brother so he’s seen him yeah you know going through it he’s got someone you know on his side and on his shoulder talking to him so yeah I think sky’s the limit for Cody Williams I think he can get about as good as he wants to get yeah and it’s just all about the work that he puts in and I see him being a great fit alongside wimy yeah he shot 41% from the three line last season in Colorado but keep this in mind he only attempted 1.7 threes a game so take that for for what it’s worth uh looking at uh some comps here uh Brandon Miller is a comp that you look at scouting reports give him uh Trey Murphy the third Jaden McDaniels is that about spot on yeah I really like the Trey Murphy and the Jaden McDaniels I think he’s going to come in he’s going to be able to be an elite Defender right off the bat because of his tremendous size and length and then on the offensive end like what do those two guys do best they hit timely threes open threes they make the right passes and I think that’s exactly what Cody Williams is going to come in he’s going to immediately start as a you know a great three and D player can guard one through four easily and he’s going to be able to hit the open three so I think uh Cody Williams is definitely High he’s high on my board for the Spurs and I would be extremely excited if we if we took him at eight I think he’s a great fit for the team and you know what too it’s not like the Spurs have ever tapped into the Colorado schol guy named Derek white Derek white CH NBA champion Derek white came from that school I’m assuming you’re GNA probably SWAT this down but picking him at number four way way too early right yeah probably a little too early there are guys higher on my board that I would take over Cody like C castle and and Matas and you know rash if he falls but at eight I mean for him uh for me at eight it’s either Dalton connect or Cody Williams that’s really the main two that I want at eight so if he’s there at eight snag him I like I said I think he’s a tremendous fit he gives me a little bit of you know young Kawai Vibes very softspoken just about the word watch out now Jack hey it’s just you know the player comp if if you know you know you can’t find a Spurs player or a Spurs fan out there that if what went down hadn’t have gone down like it is Kawai would be a legend here in San he would yeah he would Cody Williams he gives me that kind of vibe just all about the work trying to get better softspoken you know defense first kind of guy like Kawai was and then the offensive development just came fast and heavy and I feel like that can really happen with Cody Williams and he can turn into a budding star in this league with the right amount of you know development and time put into his game yeah I I looked at his um his rebounding numbers out in Colorado um a little low in my opinion I think I got him right here and just pull him up real fast um he was playing the three a lot he was never really playing the four well he was averaging about three rebounds per game I was thinking like well with that Wings span and that standing leap and all that those measurables you think that might be a little bit on the higher end but the best player the best player on that Colorado team was their their four Tristan Silva so he really not saw he didn’t see much minutes at the floor he was a perimeter three most of the time mhm yeah and uh overall yeah I like the kid I think if the Spurs take him at eight uh I would not be mad I don’t think many Spurs fans would be upset about that he has the length to be a disruptor on defense he has a link to be Creator on offense uh he you know you look he’s coming at least for the Spurs sake you know he’s coming from Colorado Spurs have experience with that system there he has great strength on both ends offensive def but what would you say his weakest point would be you know you kind of hinted at it his physic his physicalness you know he’s not matured bodywise but anything on the court that you think that could use some fine tuning now besides his physicality I would say it’s probably like his mentality and like aggressiveness level he comes off as sort of a a passive you know finesse type player in the league that’s definitely going to have to evolve into more you know phys physicality around the basket and uh just having that attack mentality that let me dominate you mentality I think you know I I don’t know him personally so I don’t you know I don’t know how how he carries himself but the way he he he comes off on the court might be a little bit passive so I would say just you know the confidence level and knowing that you know you’re an NBA guy go out put the work in and you know the the results will come they’ll show for themselves so I think just that sort of attack dominate mentality is really all he he needs to work on of course he’s you know he’s 18 19 so he needs to work on everything in his game when it comes to the league there’s no doubt about that but absolutely as far as you know what stands out it’s the it’s that mentality and physicality for me absolutely all right there you have it Spotlight Cody Williams number eight would be okay for the Spurs I mean they walk away tremendous pick yeah if they were to walk away with let’s just put it out there castle and Williams I don’t think you’d be mad I don’t think any spur mad I would be ecstatic that’s a fantastic draft yeah exactly so uh Spurs are sitting pretty and I was thinking about this the other day Jack the Spurs where they’re positioned at 4 and8 they’re kind of in a they’re kind of in good spots because look at how the lock on NBA Mock started off oh no not R fall into four or or flip it or Reed Falls the Flor if uh you know Houston sees I mean they’re sitting in a really good especially that number four spot and the number eight spot I think they should play with the number eight to see who wants it you know but I definitely I think you I would keep number four see who wants to play with number eight and move on for there but the draft are just days away just days away and uh yeah we’ll we’ll see what the Spurs do with four and eight coming up this Wednesday all right coming up next is you guys lock down Spurs fan comments we’ll keep with the draft theme we’ll see what y’all are talking about when it comes to the Spurs at the 2024 NBA draft hey I want to talk to you about FanDuel look I love sports I love them so much you know I don’t want them ever to stop but as Sports continues this summer uh you know sometimes you know you know maybe

Emily swallow and you are listening to locked on Spurs with Jeff Garcia and we’re back right here on lock on Spurs with Jack Thompson follow him on X jackor Thompson 33 he is formerly with San Antonio sports star and he’s our go-to guy for all things NBA draft draft prospects and so much more the series continues in this case it’s the series of lock on Spurs fans and the draft questions and we got so many draft questions Jack we’re going to pick two of them but uh why don’t we give a quick shout out to the fans in France the fans in France we have a uh a guy all the way in that country his name is Diego I’m going to try not to butcher your last name I’m sorry Diego uh Pata p r o TTA hopefully I did that right Diego but he says shout out all the way from France he listens to lockon Spurs as often as he can but he does have a comment for us Jack yeah and he is throwing out his picks at 4 and8 okay and according to him he said he said this is the way to go for the Spurs here we go so he goes castle and connect this is the way to go listen to you every day from Paris France go Spurs go what do you think that you think at the end of the day the Spurs ended up with castle and connect another A+ draft yeah absolutely I mean Stephen Castle you know I’ve been raving about him for quite a while number one guard on my big board I think he can come into the league right away he he’ll be an elite Defender and uh the on offensive game will come there’s no doubt about that but he’s an immediate contributor as a rookie and I’m I’m super high on him and then dalson connect I mean arguably the best offensive player in the class 66 sniper from three got a huge vertical can get down the down the lane dunk on anyone very very uh multifaceted offensive scorer three-level scorer as they like to say so yeah I mean Dalton connect and Stefon Castle would be absolutely a Fant fantastic draft for the Spurs with two guys that can immediately come in and uh make contributions and make a difference to the squad yeah I could definitely say that I mean I think again go back to the last segment I think the Spurs are sitting pretty at 4 and8 they really really are they’re going to get quality contributors right when when they’re on the draft when when they’re on the clock so yeah if it’s connect and castle at the end of the day oh no not that Jack not that that’s that’s fantastic all right thank you for that comment all the way from France next comment we have Jack is from Guadalupe chav he says H so he’s throwing out his uh request for a point guard says the point guard Devin Carter 63 195 Providence 42 in vertical water Lupe Jack he’s all about Devin Carter and you’re hearing a lot of Buzz right now about Devin Carter and I want to get your thoughts on him because you’re hear reports that the Spurs are interested in him some mock drafts have the Spurs taking him at number eight uh what are your thoughts on Devin Carter we we didn’t haven’t got a chance to talk about him yeah Devin Carter I mean he’s a seasoned um college guy he’s been in three four years Providence I mean he’s LED them the Friars to the NCA tournament several times he’s uh you know he’s got that Drew holiday Derek white build he’s a defensive dog on on the defensive end he wants to lock you up he wants to make things extremely uncomfort uncomfortable for you on that you know that end of the floor and offensively I mean he’s a season guy he’s got a high basketball IQ at the point guard great at running the show on offense and he can also he can score he’s a good shooter can shoot it from three I definitely you know I see him carving a a a quality roll out for himself in the league and if we took him at eight I I can’t say that I would be upset about it I mean he’s definitely he’s in my top five players for people I would want at eight so yeah it’s he’s a guy that’s going to be able to come into the league carve out a good role I’m not sure I ever see him you know being a NBA star but he can absolutely be a star in his role like Derek white has become I mean you can look at Dereck white there’s not a team in the league that would turn down having him on their team so you get a guy with that cut from that same cloth on your team like Devin Carter he’s definitely can be an immediate contributor and just he’ll be a pest on defense and he’ll be able to run the show on offense so yeah he’s a he’s a quality prospect that I think definitely still has room to grow in his uh in his talent level so I think uh Devin carner def a quality pick at eight and I I would not be upset about it yeah you mentioned Derek white yeah that’s been kind of one of the biggest comp there you know they’re comparing him his seiling to Derek white which is not not too shabby I me that’s pretty good yeah that is really cont her on an NBA championship team you you can’t really ask for a player a better player comp than that you you don’t think Carter at eight is too high for him or that’s about right it just feels too high I think once you get you know past six it’s kind of who you like the best I’m not sure there’s really a too high or too low for guys and I think you know if you’re in love with Devin Carter at eight go and take him I don’t think that would be too high for him yeah exactly well the draft is just a few days away and again uh we’ll keep it turning here we’ll keep it turning I’m going to see Jack I’m just ask you right now would you like to come on lockon Spurs on draft day hours before the show do begins all right jack will be back again this week get him he he’ll probably be sweating bullets he’ll be like that movie from airplane the guy with the pilot just sweating everywhere he be like what’s going on you ready to see who shakes out did by by the way you mentioned you mentioned something right now do you do you think the Draft starts at after 6 or after 7 like when do you think the draft really starts um I think it starts at one man I mean with we don’t know who’s who’s going where I think it could be crazy from the jump I mean we could see a clinging at one we could see imagine we could see anything happen I feel like so I feel like the draft definitely starts at 1 and you know we’ve broken down all these players that we think are going to be in the top 10 and there’s going to be some surprise guys that we haven’t really even talked about that make that jump into the mid to late Lottery that it’s just going to be it’s going to be a a mess man I feel like it’s going to be all over the place and I’m I’m super excited to see how it plays out absolutely Jack will’ll be back uh this week uh likely on draft day so Wednesday we’ll see we can get that going get him back on here and give him his final thoughts before Showtime begins out in New York City hey we’re done talking we want to hear from you what do you think about Cody Williams should the Spurs uh take a flyer on him use one of their picks let us know you can let Jack know at

Can you imagine a Spurs draft with either F Cody Williams 6'8 200 Colorado, G Stephon Castle 6'6 210 UConn or PG Devin Carter 6'3 195 Providence 42" vertical. They all have in common is playing defense. Shutting down opposing players. Spurs need to give Wemby some help!
Bring Dejounte home and send picks back to Atl and Charlotte!
It is aparent that new Atlanta Hawks Management wants to Blow it up and start over, unfortunately for them they are between a Rock and a hard place given that the Spurs own 2 of their top 3 picks unprotected (2025 and 2027) along with a pick swap in 2026.
I would propose the following to not only Atlanta but to Charlotte as well…….
Trade 1
Spurs receive #1 pick 2024 and Dejounte Murray
Hawks receive #4 pick 2024 and return 2025 and 2027 unprotected picks and 2026 pick swap
Trade 2
Spurs receive #6 pick 2024
Hornets receive #8 pick 2024 and return 2025 (Protected 1-14) 1st round pick which will probably not convey and will result in two second round picks
Mock Draft
1. Spurs – Zaccharie Risacher
2. Wizards – Alex Sarr
3. Rockets – Reed Sheppard
4. Atlanta – Donavan Clingan
5. Pistons- Matas Buzelis
6. Spurs – Stephon Castle
7. Blazers- Cody Williams
8. Hornets- Dalton Knecht/Ron Holland
Projected starting line up
PG- Murray
SG- Castle
SF- Vassel
PF- Risarcher
C- Wemby
Remaining Roster
Sochan
Johnson
Collins
Jones
Branham
Champagnie
Bassey
Mamu
Graham
You have flexibility and depth you can start Sochan and move Castle to bench so he can get some run at Point guard as well (Combo Guard)
Legitimate contender within 2/3 Years
Thoughts?
Knecht is a defensive liability
