Lamarcus Aldridge is quietly carrying the historically good San Antonio Spurs.
The All-Star Break has come and gone, but it seems like the same old story with the Spurs. They have the second best record in the NBA at 50-9, leading their division by 15 games, and sitting only four games behind Golden State for the league’s best record. After last year’s disappointing first round playoff exit, the Spurs seem primed for a deep post-season run behind their leader Kawhi Leonard. But beyond all the deserved attention given to Leonard, newcomer LaMarcus Aldridge is having one of the best seasons of his career.
