Kansas basketball: List of Jayhawks competing on an NBA team in 2023-24
PG Devonte’ Graham — San Antonio Spurs
Graham began his NBA career in promising fashion, averaging 18.2 points and 7.5 assists per game in his second season. However, his numbers have started to slip in recent years, and the prolific 3-point shooter’s job in the NBA seemed to be in jeopardy after the New Orleans Pelicans sent him off to a rebuilding Spurs team.
Rather than that, though, he embraced his new role and played extremely well for San Antonio. He is entering the third year of his 4-year, $37 million dollar deal as he looks to prove why he belongs in the league.
Coach Pop and the Spurs open their season against the Dallas Mavericks tomorrow at 8:30 p.m. CT. Unfortunately, Devonte’ is serving a 2-game suspension stemming from a DWI arrest in 2022, so we won’t see him take the floor until their third game against the Clippers on Oct. 29.
