#8: San Antonio Spurs select Nikola Topic 

Topic is hurt right now but is too good to fall too far in the draft despite those concerns. 

He would give the Spurs the chance to run HUGE lineups out there with everyone on the floor at least 6-foot-6, including their point guard. 

Getting a guy who can break down a defense and get into the lane makes sense for a team with one of the best lob threats in the league. 

The Spurs build around size and skill and have a nice trio to kick off Wembanyama’s second season in the league.
