After a slow start to the season, November's schedule gives Luke Kornet the perfect opportunity to prove his reliability as the Spurs' backup center.

Ty Small of Air Alamo argues that a demanding 16-game November schedule presents a vital opportunity for San Antonio Spurs backup center Luke Kornet. After struggling during the postseason and to begin the new season, Kornet has a chance to rebuild trust and cement his spot behind Victor Wembanyama.
Small highlights the need to manage Wembanyama's workload across the grueling stretch. Strong interior play, rim protection, and rebounding from Kornet would give Wembanyama necessary rest while also keeping young challenger Tarris Reed Jr. from seizing the backup role under head coach Mitch Johnson.
