随着奥运会预选赛的开始，几名马刺球员正在海外征战。
不仅是马刺，整个 NBA 的自由球员谈判期都处于一个不同寻常的平静期。因此，我认为现在是时候暂时放下等待，看看一些马刺球员在海外的训练和备战 2024 年巴黎奥运会预选赛（今天开始）的情况了，这其中包括代表波兰出战的杰里米·索汉 (Jeremy Sochan)、代表格鲁吉亚出战的桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利 (Sandro Mamukelashvili) 以及代表西班牙出战的胡安·努涅斯 (Juan Nunez)。
以下是几天前索汉在与菲律宾的对抗赛中，他在比赛中出任小球中锋，耐心等待背身单打的机会，然后完成了一记反手上篮。

然而，这几天有些事情发生了变化：他的头发！

从新秀赛季的彩虹色，到更柔和的颜色和蓬松的造型，再到现在的脏辫。他会坚持这个新造型，还是在 9 月份的训练营开始时，我们会看到另一个版本的索汉？时间会告诉我们答案！
至于马刺已经向其提供资质报价，使他成为现阶段受限制自由球员的马穆，他今天下午（对他来说是晚上）在拉脱维亚锦标赛的预选赛中对阵拉脱维亚。画面中，他突破拉脱维亚的防守，隔着前马刺球员戴维斯·贝尔坦斯 (Davis Bertans) 完成了一记暴扣。

不幸的是，格鲁吉亚以 55-83 输掉了锦标赛的揭幕战，他们在进军巴黎的征程中已经落后了。
我还没有找到努涅斯最近几天代表西班牙出战的任何精彩片段，但他们目前正在西班牙锦标赛中对阵黎巴嫩，半场结束时以 50-31 领先，而他替补出场贡献了 2 分、2 个篮板和 2 次助攻。
胡安·努涅斯在比赛前 8 分钟内得到 2 分、2 个篮板、2 次助攻和 0 次失误。他是主要的控球手，还有几次潜在的助攻，可惜球都弹框而出。

如果您想了解更多关于奥运会预选赛的信息，请点击此处。（与东京奥运会不同的是，本届奥运会没有马刺球员为美国队效力——尽管德里克·怀特 (Derrick White) 被列为科怀·伦纳德 (Kawhi Leonard) 的潜在伤病替补人选，如果伦纳德的身体状况不足以出战的话。）
最后，我们来谈谈维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)。由于法国作为东道主已经获得了参赛资格，他们只是在进行训练，但文班在训练中看起来状态非常好，包括各种三分球（后撤步、接球就投等）、补篮和一些漂亮的低位动作。当然，这仅仅是训练，但他看起来比一年前这个时候流畅多了。尽管这很难想象，但他在二年级实现巨大飞跃并非不可能。

哦，对了，如果你问西迪·西索科 (Sidy Cissoko) 的话——他目前正在圣安东尼奥为夏季联赛做准备（是的，他的膝盖没事）——文班还在长高。全世界可要小心了。
“他看起来还在长高。前一天，他还只有 2 米 21 或 2 米 24。第二天，他就长到 2 米 26 了。”

Checking in on Spurs who are preparing for the Olympics
As Olympic qualifiers begin, several Spurs are active overseas.
We have hit an unusual lull in the free agency negotiating period not just for the Spurs, but the NBA as a whole. As a result, I thought it would be fun to take a break from, well, waiting and take a look at how some Spurs are doing overseas as they train and prepare for the 2024 Paris Olympics qualifiers (which began today). That includes Jeremy Sochan with Poland, Sandro Mamukelashvili with Georgia, and Juan Nunez with Spain.
Here is Sochan in a scrimmage against the Philippines a few days ago, playing some small ball center and patiently waiting for a post-up before throwing down a reverse dunk.

However, something has changed in the days since: his hair!

From every color in the rainbow his rookie year, to more subtle colors with volume and now cornrows. Will he stick with the new look, or will there be yet another version of Sochan when he checks in for training camp in September? Time will tell!
As for Mamu, who was extended a qualifying offer by the Spurs, making him a current restricted free agent, he spent this afternoon (or evening, in his case) playing against Latvia in the Latvia Tournament of the qualifiers. Here he is slicing through the Latvian defense for a slam over former Spur Davis Bertans.

Unfortunately, Georgia lost its tournament opener 83-55, so they’re already behind in their quest to make it to Paris.
I haven’t found any highlights of Nunez with Spain from recent days, but they are currently playing Lebanon in the Spain Tournament and were up 50-31 at halftime, while he recorded 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists coming off the bench.
Juan Nunez with 2 pts, 2 rebs, 2 asts, and 0 turnovers through 8 min of play in the first half. He was the primary ball-handler and had a few more potential assists that rimmed out.

If you want more information on the Olympic qualifying tournaments, click here. (Unlike the Tokyo Olympics, there are no Spurs playing for Team USA — although Derrick White has been listed as a potential injury replacement for, drumroll, Kawhi Leonard should he not be healthy enough to play.)
Finally, there’s Victor Wembanyama. Because France has already qualified as the host nation, they have merely been training, but Wemby has looked plenty good doing it, including hitting threes of every variety (step back, spot up, etc.), putback slams, and some nice moves in post. Sure, it’s just practice, but he still looks so much smoother than this time a year ago. As hard as it may be to imagine, a large sophomore leap is very possible.

Oh, and if you ask Sidy Cissoko, who is currently in San Antonio practicing ahead of Summer League (and yes, his knee is fine), Wemby is still growing. Watch out, world.
“He looks like he’s still growing up. One day, he’s 7-3, 7-4. The next day, he’s like 7-5.”
