迪伦·哈珀的父亲 罗恩·哈珀 (Ron Harper) 曾公开表示希望儿子去向的意愿，如今他似乎对成为银黑军团的一员感到满意。未来大家在圣安东尼奥经常看到他，不足为奇。

在迪伦·哈珀被选中后不久，欢迎信息便纷至沓来。首先，一位球队传奇送上了他的祝福。19岁的哈珀不太可能看过很多 马努·吉诺比利 (Manu Ginobili) 的比赛，但他肯定知道这位四届NBA总冠军得主对这支球队的意义。

随后，球队的当家球星也抽空欢迎了他的新搭档。

与此同时，马刺队的社交媒体团队也发布了一段集锦视频，确保让所有人都为这位新后卫的到来而兴奋不已。

如果这些还不足以让球迷们认可这次选秀，那么看到哈珀兴奋地签下他人生中第一个签名，或许就能奏效了。马刺队似乎得到了一位谦逊的年轻人。

在他的首次新闻发布会上，他特意指出自己期待与 斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 和 达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 一同打球，这表明他似乎并不担心后卫线的人员扎堆问题。
“我只是超级开心和激动。”

毫无疑问，他对能与文班一同打球感到兴奋不已，他在接受 泰勒·鲁克斯 (Taylor Rooks) 采访时透露了一些关于他如何看待自己的优势和劣势以及他的目标。

哈珀的言辞得体，对于这样一位备受关注且略有争议的选秀球员来说，能有此表现实属难得。顺便提一下，如果有人好奇，他将身穿2号球衣。

Dylan Harper said all the right things after being drafted by the Spurs
The rookie seemed thrilled to land in San Antonio and the franchise showed him love in his draft day.
The Spurs did what they were expected to and drafted Dylan Harper second overall. The former Rutgers star seemed thrilled to hear his name called and ecstatic about landing with the Spurs in his first interview.

His father Ron, who had been vocal about where he wanted his son to land, seemed to be fine with being a part of the Silver and Black family. Don’t be surprised to see him around San Antonio a lot.
@ spurs where’s the best cigar bar in San Antonio?

Soon after the selection, the welcoming messages started to pour in. First, a franchise legend sent his regards. It’s unlikely 19-year-old Harper watched a lot of Manu’s game, but he surely knows what the four-time NBA champion means for the organization.

Then the franchise star himself took the time to welcome his new running mate.

Even the broadcast team, which will get to call plenty of Harper highlights, chimed in.
Welcome to San Antonio, Dylan Harper! As @ seanelliott_32 has said recently, it’s about to get REAL FUN, Spurs familia!!! GSG #porvida

Meanwhile, the social media team made sure to get everybody hyped about the Spurs’ new guard with a highlights video.

If that wasn’t enough to get fans on board with the pick, watching Harper excitedly sign his first autograph probably did the trick. It seems like the Spurs are getting a humble guy.

In his first press conference, he made sure to point out that he’s looking forward to playing with Stephon Castle and De’Aaron Fox, so it doesn’t seem he’s worried about the logjam at guard.
“I’m just super happy and excited.”

He’s also understandably thrilled about playing with Wemby, as he told Taylor Rooks in an interview that provides some insight into how Harper looks at his strengths and weaknesses and what his goals are.

Harper said all the right things, which was great to see from such a high-profile and somewhat controversial pick. Oh, and in case anyone was wondering, he’ll be wearing No. 2.
