2016-17 NBA Season Predictions for Each San Antonio Spurs Player

The Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers are the favorites for 2016-17's NBA title, but the San Antonio Spurs are the top challengers to either's championship throne.

Despite the loss of franchise cornerstone Tim Duncan, San Antonio has a roster built to contend with the Association's best. Kawhi Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge lead a new-look team that is coming off its best regular season in franchise history.

However, Golden State's 73-win campaign overshadowed that 67-win Spurs squad, while most headlines from the offseason focused on Cleveland's championship and Kevin Durant's free agency.

San Antonio won't claim "disrespect," but once again, Gregg Popovich's team may be flying a little too far under the national radar.
