Biyombo’s second 10-day contract was nearing its end, so it made sense for the team to keep him on the roster.

The team was thin in the center position, with Victor Wembanyama out for the season and Charles Bassey dealing with his injuries.

Since joining the Spurs, Biyombo has posted two double-doubles this week, averaging 5.7 points and 5.0 rebounds in six games.
