Earlier this month, the Spurs picked up Taelon Peter on a training camp deal. After that move, the team still has two more openings on their 20-man camp roster, and they should be looking to fill them.
San Antonio has one free standard roster spot, but they can only afford to hand out a rookie-scale contract. They also have all three two-way slots occupied for now. So, the chances of any Exhibit 10 signees making the team would be low.
But, at the very least, bringing in some fringe players with something to prove would be good for the competition and development in preseason. Plus, who knows, one of them could surprise coaches and force his way onto the official squad.
Here are three players the Spurs should consider giving an audition to this fall:
1. Trevor Keels
After being drafted 42nd overall in 2022, Keels’ career hasn’t met expectations so far. He has just 11 games played across two NBA seasons under his belt—three with the New York Knicks in 2022-23 and eight with the Miami Heat in 2025-26. In those contests, he averaged 2.1 minutes and 1.0 points per game.
At lower levels, though, Keels has shown real improvement and intrigue. He emerged as one of the G League’s most electric shooters last season, posting 18.7 PPG and shooting 40.1% from deep on 8.3 attempts per game for the Sioux Falls Skyforce. The Duke product drained eight or more triples four times, even going an insane 12/12 once.
Keels, who can also contribute as a driver and defender, has two more years of two-way contract eligibility. His off-ball skill set could make him a smoother fit on the Spurs than David Jones-Garcia, who is more of a ball handler, something the team has a borderline surplus of.
2. Rienk Mast
Mast is an undrafted rookie out of Nebraska. He was a standout in his first-ever Summer League in July, notching 15.2 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per night for the Indiana Pacers. Indy didn’t extend his stay after that, and the Spurs could turn that into a serious mistake if they give him a shot.
Mast’s appeal stems from his legitimate stretch five chops. For a 6’10” big man, he has a pure stroke from beyond the arc, and he’s more than willing to take and make threes at volume. He’s a sharp passer and an excellent offensive rebounder, too.
If he really popped in preseason, Mast could be a candidate for San Antonio’s final standard spot. He also has four years of two-way eligibility ahead of him. Even if there wasn’t room for him in the big leagues initially, the Spurs would be smart to use an Exhibit 10 to get him into their G League system and keep close tabs on him.
3. RJ Davis
Here’s a familiar face from San Antonio’s 2026 Summer League squad. Davis, a University of North Carolina legend, has established time and time again that he’s a professional scorer. He put up 18.4 PPG and 5.0 APG in his inaugural G League campaign in 2025-26 and chipped in 12.1 PPG in Vegas with the Silver and Black.
Davis would be a bit redundant with Ja’Kobi Gillespie, but it could be nice to add another perimeter sparkplug to a team that occasionally struggled with shooting last year.
Like Taelon Peter, any of Keels, Mast, and Davis could have enough juice to disrupt San Antonio’s depth chart. If they get their foot in the door, they could materialize as hidden gems.
