The 19-year-old Primo is a high-level rookie selected by the Spurs with the 12th overall pick last year. His scoring ability is very good, and he has been focused on training by the Spurs.
The Spurs suddenly cut him this time, which was very surprising to the outside world. When everyone was shocked, they were also speculating about what happened. Small-market Spurs generally don’t give up such a talented player unless there’s a major scandal off the court.

The Spurs just exercised Primo’s team option for next season two weeks ago, and his salary this season is $4.1 million.
