Asked how participation policy impacts back to backs with their stars, particularly Kawhi Leonard coming off another knee injury, Lawrence Frank says Kawhi plays when healthy and always wants to play. Last season, Kawhi was coming off ACL which needed to be handled carefully. – 4:28 PM

Lawrence Frank mentions that part of the roster perspective is that Kawhi Leonard could play up to the 4 or could stay at the 3, and Terance Mann could play multiple positions. But he stresses that starters, lineups, etc. are ultimately T Lue questions. – 4:28 PM

Damian Lillard isn’t coming to San Antonio. But in a few years, in “the new free agency,” some well-paid, unfulfilled star might see the Spurs as his best option. And by then, the franchise might be ready for a Kawhi-style trade in reverse. expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a… – 6:27 PM
