Spurs rookie Carter Bryant hit the gym with Victor Wembanyama, others
San Antonio Spurs rookie Carter Bryant was among the players who were spotted working out at the practice facility in pictures posted by the team on Wednesday. Bryant was joined on the court by Stephon Castle, De'Aaron Fox, Keldon Johnson, Luke Kornet, Jeremy Sochan and Victor Wembanyama at the Victory Capital Performance Center. They were seen going through various on-court workouts, with Bryant guarding Johnson in one sequence. The offseason period is an excellent chance for incoming rookies to get to know their teammates and build chemistry on and off the court. Bryant has had a busy summer in the local community and had the opportunity to work out with several players on Wednesday. Bryant was the 16th pick in the draft after helping Arizona to the Sweet 16 last season, averaging 6.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, and one assist on 37.1% shooting from 3-point range. He scored in double figures five times, including a season-high-tying 14 points on Jan. 27. The 19-year-old logged six appearances with the Spurs in summer league, averaging 7.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.2 assists on 28.6% shooting from the field. He wrapped up his stay with a 16-point, five-rebound performance on July 17. Bryant appears to have ingratiated himself well within the area and with his new teammates after joining the organization in June. The team was excited to add him and is eager to watch him hit the court. This article originally appeared on Rookie Wire: Spurs news: Carter Bryant hit the gym with Victor Wembanyama, others

Allar named to Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award watch list
Even in the preseason, Penn State and its players have been receiving hype and accolades left and right. And no one player has received as much hype as senior QB Drew Allar. Going into his final year at Happy Valley, Allar is set for a career-defining season that could see his draft stock rise exponentially. Witn him being tabbed with many different quarterback watch list honors, the media certainly expect nothing less. The newest addition to Drew Allar's preseason resume may not be the most prestigious, but it is another feather in his cap. The Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award has been around for almost 40 years, and in that time, has honored countless young college football athletes who are strong leaders, good of character, and are academically sound as well. Allar displays all these traits and more. Should he live up to the preseason buzz, he may just walk away with it. This is not the only award Allar could be up for this season. He has been nominated for awards that also have more to do with his on-field success as well. He has already been named to the Davey O'Brien, Manning, Maxwell and Walter Camp Player of the year award watch lists, a year after being named a Davey O'Brien semifinalist. While not named to any specific preseason All-American lists, he will be looking to get into a postseason squad after being named an All-Big Ten honorable mention in the two years he has started. Ultimately, any awards Allar wins will come down to his pedigree and overall play. He is already the most efficient Penn State quarterback, ranking first in completion percentage all time. However, his performance both on and off the field will have to be particularly stellar to contend for the Golden Arm. Allar can't just be extraordinary. He must be exemplary. With this team by his side, he certainly will have the chance to be.
