The San Antonio Spurs have made Harrison Barnes’ return official. [...] The Spurs announced that they re-signed Barnes, a 14-year NBA veteran and 2015 NBA champion, keeping one of their most experienced forwards in place after San Antonio’s first postseason appearance since 2019. The team did not disclose terms of the deal, but NBA.com previously reported Barnes was expected to return on a one-year, $8 million contract.

For the Spurs, this is not a splashy move. It is a continuity move — and those matter for a team trying to build off a breakthrough season rather than reset around it.

### Summary

Still, if the Spurs are looking to win a championship next season after losing the NBA Finals this year, there should be some sense that going after other really good players is an idea they want to pursue. Ultimately, the Spurs must consider what is right and what would be wrong.

One player who I believe all fans would be happy about, and certainly wouldn't be a bad idea to pursue, is Trey Murphy. Murphy was recently predicted to be traded, and that should be viewed as ideal news for San Antonio. [...] Murphy is a bit of an overrated defender, though he's not bad on that side of the basketball at all. However, considering what we've seen over the past few seasons with the New Orleans Pelicans, he's a bit better offensively than anything else. I think, however, in San Antonio he'd be a perfect fit for what both parties can offer each other.

The [San Antonio Spurs](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/san-antonio-spurs) will have many assets to move on from in the future, so making a trade now isn't necessary.

Still, if the Spurs are looking to win a championship next season after losing the NBA Finals this year, there should be some sense that going after other really good players is an idea they want to pursue. Ultimately, the Spurs must consider what is right and what would be wrong.

One player who I believe all fans would be happy about, and certainly wouldn't be a bad idea to pursue, is Trey Murphy. Murphy was recently predicted to be traded, and that should be viewed as ideal news for San Antonio.

“Trey Murphy represents the ultimate modern wing asset, meaning he will inevitably command a sky-high price from any aggressive buyer in the marketplace. He gives teams a highly explosive, athletic perimeter defender who can shoot the lights out on a fairly team-friendly deal. An acquiring franchise will have to heavily woo the [Pelicans](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/new-orleans-pelicans) with a historic draft-capital haul to pry him away, but with New Orleans drifting so far from true championship contention, pivoting to a full-blown organizational rebuild looks like the most logical trajectory,” Joe Cervenka [wrote](https://www.sportsgrid.com/nba/article/nba-trade-rumors-ranking-the-50-players-most-likely-to-be-moved-in-the-2026-offseason).

Murphy is a bit of an overrated defender, though he's not bad on that side of the basketball at all. However, considering what we've seen over the past few seasons with the New Orleans Pelicans, he's a bit better offensively than anything else. I think, however, in San Antonio he'd be a perfect fit for what both parties can offer each other.

# Butterfly Effect: Carter Bryant takes the court in Vegas

It’s Las Vegas time, there’s a new Pop in the WNBA, and more!

by [Wes McKinzie](/authors/wesmckinzie)

Spurs forward Carter Bryant makes his second-year Summer League debut Thursday at 3:30 pm CST against San Antonio native Kingston Flemings and the Atlanta Hawks.

You’ll remember Bryant flashed as a Summer League rookie last year, motivating ESPN’s Tim Legler to say [he’d win the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award someday](https://www.si.com/nba/spurs/onsi/news/learning-from-everybody-carter-bryant-reflects-first-training-camp).

The Summer Spurs will play at least four games in Las Vegas after going 0-3 in the California Classic.

## Around the Horn

**Vegas Prep:** Yahoo’s Kevin O’Connor posted a list of [the top 50 players to watch in Vegas](https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/top-50-players-to-watch-at-nba-summer-league-in-las-vegas-021549727.html). Not much love for the Spurs … Bryant is nowhere to be found (that’s a big oopsie) and Tarris Reed, Jr., is way down the list.

**From Mark Zuckerberg to El Jefe?** Jesse Eisenberg, an Oscar-nominated actor most known for the lead role of Mark Zuckerberg in *The Social Network*, recently said [his dream role is playing Gregg Popovich](https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/open-thread-jesse-eisenberg-says-110000195.html). Eisenberg on Pop: “I just find him to be the most fascinating person on the planet. Here’s this tough coach who cries sometimes and talks about the plight of America, and yet he’s also this terrifying figure who can be so mean to journalists. People like that are fascinating because, on the one hand, they’re known to be very nasty, and on the other hand they’re these bleeding hearts.”

**Top of the Heap:** Speaking of Pop, he came to mind Wednesday night when Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve became the [WNBA’s all-time regular season wins leader](https://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/49312036/lynx-cheryl-reeve-sets-wnba-record-regular-season-wins) with 380. Like Popovich in the NBA, she now holds both the WNBA’s regular season record and overall mark (including playoff victories). Interestingly, Reeve’s career winning percentage ranks behind just one person: former Spurs assistant and Silver Stars guard Becky Hammon, the head coach for the Las Vegas Aces.

**Highest Bidder:** [Darren Rovell reports](https://x.com/darrenrovell) that various items from the recent NBA Finals brought in big money through a Sotheby’s auction. Various New York Knicks’ game-used jerseys collectively approached $2 million while Finals-branded court panels from Madison Square Garden and a net from Game 5 combined to eclipse $500,000.

**By George:** Last week’s Philadelphia-Boston blockbuster trade has some calling Paul George “[the most valuable player in NBA history](https://www.instagram.com/p/DaRWkYlB1OH/).” Given that he’s been traded for All-Stars Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jaylen Brown plus other good players and a slew of valuable draft picks (we see you, OKC), it’s a compelling argument.

**Word Play:** On a recent NBA Radio show on Sirius XM, Zach Harper and Chris Haynes debated the [words that need to disappear from the league’s vocabulary](https://x.com/SiriusXMNBA/status/2074986133193179144). Their picks were “optionality” and “curated.” What words do you think need to be banned from the NBA? Let us know in the comments below!

Throughout the seven-game battle against the Thunder, Harper also played an important role in San Antonio's rotation. However, despite overcoming Oklahoma City to reach the Finals, the Spurs were unable to finish the job, ultimately falling to the New York Knicks in the championship series.

### Sami Haider [...] Harper and the Spurs punched their ticket to the NBA Finals after defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder in a hard-fought seven-game Western Conference Finals series. Although San Antonio had enjoyed success against the Thunder during the regular season, the conference finals proved to be a far more demanding challenge. The series went the distance before the Spurs secured a 4-3 victory.

Coming off an MVP-winning regular season, Gilgeous-Alexander showcased why he is regarded as one of the league's elite scorers. Williams complemented him perfectly as Oklahoma City's second star.. Even while dealing with injuries late in the series, Williams continued to make his presence felt, particularly with his rebounding and all-around impact. [...] Sami Haider

The San Antonio Spurs are coming off an outstanding season that saw them reach the NBA Finals for the first time in a decade. Rookie standout Dylan Harper emerged as one of the team's biggest contributors throughout that impressive postseason run, although San Antonio ultimately came up short in its quest for the championship.

During a recent interview, Harper was asked to identify the toughest player he had to defend this season. The Spurs rookie didn't need much time to think before giving his response, immediately naming Oklahoma City Thunder stars Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams as the most challenging matchup he faced.

“SGA and JDub. We beat them, but… damn… them two kinda hard,” Harper said.

# Dylan Harper didn't hesitate naming the two NBA stars who gave him the most trouble

The [San Antonio Spurs](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/san-antonio-spurs) are coming off an outstanding season that saw them reach the NBA Finals for the first time in a decade. Rookie standout Dylan Harper emerged as one of the team's biggest contributors throughout that impressive postseason run, although San Antonio ultimately came up short in its quest for the championship.

During a recent interview, Harper was asked to identify the toughest player he had to defend this season. The Spurs rookie didn't need much time to think before giving his response, immediately naming [Oklahoma City Thunder](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/oklahoma-city-thunder) stars Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams as the most challenging matchup he faced.

“SGA and JDub. We beat them, but… damn… them two kinda hard,” Harper [said](https://x.com/PolymarketHoops/status/2076089029628694668?s=20).

Harper and the Spurs punched their ticket to the NBA Finals after defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder in a hard-fought seven-game Western Conference Finals series. Although San Antonio had enjoyed success against the Thunder during the regular season, the conference finals proved to be a far more demanding challenge. The series went the distance before the Spurs secured a 4-3 victory.

Coming off an MVP-winning regular season, Gilgeous-Alexander showcased why he is regarded as one of the league's elite scorers. Williams complemented him perfectly as Oklahoma City's second star.. Even while dealing with injuries late in the series, Williams continued to make his presence felt, particularly with his rebounding and all-around impact.

Throughout the seven-game battle against the Thunder, Harper also played an important role in San Antonio's rotation. However, despite overcoming Oklahoma City to reach the Finals, the Spurs were unable to finish the job, ultimately falling to the [New York Knicks](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/new-york-knicks) in the championship series.

Add Axios on Google

Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E)is kicking off a series of community meetings next week focused on the team's planned new arena and surrounding downtown district.

Why it matters: The meetings are among the first opportunities for residents to weigh in since voters last November approved the venue tax increase that will help fund a new downtown Spurs arena.

The big picture: The broader district is expected to reshape a large swath of downtown with new housing, parks, restaurants and retail, and spaces surrounding the arena.
