San Antonio Spurs’ draft prospect Juan Nuñez will face an extended absence after undergoing surgery to remove a meniscal cyst in his right knee. The 36th pick in the 2024 draft is currently with FC Barcelona and will be out for at least six months. This marks the second procedure on the same knee this year, casting uncertainty on his immediate return and development timeline. The situation will be closely monitored by the Spurs as they assess his long-term role within the franchise.
