In the last five games Wemby is 6 for 29 shooting from three point. He should let other players be the perimeter shooters.

Keep Vassel , Keldon, Sochan and Branham. No need for trade .Look for the picks and free agents

Get rid of branham, Collins, and Graham, keep Wesley and champagnie, and sign Barlow to an extension similar to bassey and champagnie. I’d love for them to try and get bogdanovic from the knicks for Collins, branham, one first and a few seconds but it might take a couple firsts to offload Collins.
Take collier and shephard in the draft. Sign Grayson Allen to help with shooting and more play making.
Jones, Vassell, Bogdanovic, Sochan, Wemby
Wesley, Allen, KJ, Barlow/Bassey
Keep collier and Shepard on the bench and let them develop in the g league a bit. In year two they’ll probably be getting major playing time

The spurs record looks bad but you can’t deny they’ve played better in last half of the season.

Can Vassel pass to someone who cuts inside? It feels like he struggles there. People are going to camp the outside lane if he doesn’t figure out how to oop or bounce pass on some of those pick and roll cuts.
