All season long, the Spurs have been linked to the likes of Trae Young, De'Aaron Fox, Darius Garland, Andrew Nembhard, and even LaMelo Ball, although it sounds like Fox, who is one of the more realistic targets, "has a target destination in mind" as he gets shopped around the league.

Later Tuesday afternoon, The Athletic became one of the first outlets to name the Spurs as the team seen by sources across the league as “the likely destination of choice” for Fox, and this makes a lot of sense.
