The San Antonio Spurs are widely regarded as the model NBA organization.

Players, coaches, and other staff members who have had the privilege of earning their spurs, no pun intended, in San Antonio hold a good batting rate of landing a job elsewhere because of that particular pedigree.

Recently, the team announced a number of hires within the organization and one of those involved is former Knicks and Raptors forward Landry Fields; the team's new college scout.

“Fields joins the Spurs after a five-year NBA playing career. An All-Rookie First Team Selection in 2011, Fields averaged 6.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 23.6 minutes in 255 career games with the New York Knicks and Toronto Raptors.”

Interestingly, the 28-year-old only played five seasons in the NBA.

Outside of his on-court work, Fields owns a solid background highlighted by his education at Stanford University. His basketball acumen coupled with a good deal of intelligence should do him well in his new capacity with the Spurs.

Who knows, this might just be the beginning of bigger things for Landry Fields.
