San Antonio Spurs' newest import, Aron Baynes, has played exactly 44 seconds in the NBA and has one turnover as his only official statistic so far. Despite that auspicious start, Baynes recently told the Spokesman-Review that he's already living the dream, or at least one dream of his.

“It was always a goal. I’ve reached one goal but I’ve set many more. It was a process I’ve been working toward and now that I’m here I want to go out, try and earn my spot and do as well as I can,” Baynes said. “It’s not just about being here. I want to be an impact player, go out there and help the team out as much as I can by doing whatever I can to help us compete."


Playing time aside, Baynes couldn't have settled into a better situation. He's got a fellow Aussie in Patty Mills on the team. He's got his Australian national team coach Brett Brown to help him get up to speed on a playbook he's already familiar with.
