Yahoo Sports The latest 2025 NBA mock draft from ESPN has Spurs with Kon Knueppel and Egor Demin
The San Antonio Spurs are one of the most interesting teams in the league due to Victor Wembanyama, and it will only get more fascinating.
San Antonio currently has two projected lottery picks in the 2025 NBA Draft, which could help them continue to retool around Wembanyama after picking Stephon Castle in the 2024 NBA Draft.
New predictions from ESPN have the Spurs with an absolute dream scenario, picking two of the freshmen who have had the best starts to the NCAA men's college basketball season thus far: Duke's Kon Knueppel and BYU's Egor Demin.
Here is more from ESPN's Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo on the selections, including thoughts on Knueppel:
"Knueppel's ability to shoot off screens, pull up off the dribble and spot up from deep vantage points with picture-perfect footwork and mechanics should keep him prominent in draft conversations, especially with the way he has contributed in other areas as well with his physicality, feel for the game and better-than-expected shot creation and defense."
They also added that Knueppel is "arguably the best shooter" in this draft class.
Read more from them on Demin:
"Few freshmen have been more impressive than Demin, who is utilizing a tremendous platform at BYU to showcase his outstanding size, spectacular court vision, shotmaking prowess and all-around talent against, thus far, lower-level competition."
Demin has looked fantastic as a tall playmaker for BYU, and he could provide a spark as the point guard of the future for San Antonio.
