Ingram will likely spend a lot of time with the Austin Spurs (in addition to the NBA).

He will be an intriguing prospect for the Spurs to develop.

Harrison is a great and versatile addition! Donโ€™t give up hope on Riley Minix who has a training camp invite. Besides, the team is still likely to see some changes. In fact, we are expecting more roster news in the next couple of days. Patience. Letโ€™s see how it plays out.โณ๐Ÿ€ https://t.co/HtTZUJWGVV
