The Spurs will tip off the 2024-25 season in just five days, and it appears the roster is set. One day after picking up Victor Wembanyama’s third year option and the fourth year options for Jeremy Sochan, Malaki Branham and Blake Wesley, they have now filled their final two-way roster spot with Riley Minix. Per the Spurs’ official press release: The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have signed Riley Minix to a Two-Way contract. Per team policy, terms of the contract were not announced. Minix, 6-7/230, has appeared in three preseason games for the Spurs, averaging 7.7 points and 2.0 rebounds in 7.8 minutes while shooting 70.0% (8-12 FG) from the floor. In three NBA 2K25 Summer League games, he posted 12.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 20.8 minutes for the Silver and Black. Prior joining the Spurs, Minix played four seasons at Southeastern State University before transferring to Morehead State for the 2023-24 season. In one season at Morehead, he started all 28 games, averaging 22.4 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 34.9 minutes, earning Ohio Valley Conference Male Athlete of the Year as well as Lou Henson Mid Major All-American while leading MSU to the OVC regular season co-championship and tournament title. At Southeastern State, he played in 99 total games (83 starts) and averaged 20.7 points, 10.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocks on his way to being named NAIA and NABC All-American, two-time Sun Conference Player of the Year (2020, 2022) and First-Team All TSC honors as a freshman. Minix joins David Duke Jr. and second round pick Harrison Ingram as the Spurs three two-way players to start the season. Of the players who were on exhibition 10 deals vying for that final spot, Minix was by far the most impressive. All three players will spend time with the Austin Spurs while being eligible to appear in up to 50 NBA games. While the Spurs are very deep, Minix may already be one of their best outside shooters, so he may still get a chance to show what he can do in the big league. Welcome to San Antonio for good, Riley!
