Dylan Harper was already considered a talented player coming out of college, but when he was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs, he quickly drew comparisons to the franchise’s legendary left-handed guard, Manu Ginobili.
Harper was selected No. 2 overall and is regarded as one of the top players in his draft class. He went second overall behind phenom Cooper Flagg, who was selected by the Dallas Mavericks. He may be a rookie, but expectations for him are already high. The Spurs are banking on him to help form their new Big Three.
The other two members are Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle, who arrived in San Antonio during the summers of 2023 and 2024, respectively.
The Spurs are getting a high ROI so far in their rookie with his reliable players and defense during their Western Conference Finals win over the defending champions Oklahoma City Thunder. Harper has become a fan favorite to the point that they are comparing him to one of the franchise’s legend – Manu Ginobili.
Harper is aware of the comparison.
