It marks the third time in Spurs franchise history they will be picking No. 1 overall in the draft. The other two? David Robinson in 1987 and Tim Duncan in 1997. With Gregg Popovich at the helm, Wembanyama could be looking to solidify himself in elite company. 

San Antonio will make its pick official on Thursday, June 22, the date of the 2023 NBA Draft.
