San Antonio Spurs rookies Dylan Harper and Carter Bryant recently spent time volunteering by giving back and offering support in the local community.
Harper and Carter were joined by second-year forward Riley Minix at Haven for Hope, a homeless shelter in San Antonio. The three players were seen behind the counter, along with several other individuals, providing food and positive interactions to those in need.

The offseason period is a great chance for incoming rookies to get to know their respective markets and communities. Harper and Carter looked grateful to be asked to help the local area and appeared to make the most of their time this week.
Harper debuted with the Spurs in the NBA Summer League, averaging 16 points, four rebounds, two assists and one steal on 35.7% shooting from the field. The No. 2 pick dealt with a minor groin injury and was limited to two appearances.
Bryant, the 14th pick, logged six appearances 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.

The two players appear to have ingratiated themselves well within the local community after joining the organization in June. They had the opportunity to give back and likely picked up some new fans along the way.
