SPURS RE-SIGN JORDAN MCLAUGHLIN
According to a report, the Spurs have signed guard Jordan McLaughlin.
The Spurs acquired McLaughlin from the Sacramento Kings in the De’Aaron Fox trade. Reportedly, San Antonio re-signed the veteran guard to a one-year, $3 million deal.
Through 18 games played with the Spurs last season, McLaughlin averaged 2.5 points and 1.5 assists in 6.9 minutes per game.
He’ll serve primarily as a backup role to the Spurs rotation of Fox, Stephon Castle, and rookie Dylan Harper. He will likely see an increase in minutes with the departures of Blake Wesley and Malaki Branham.
San Antonio now has two remaining roster spots, including two-way contracts to offer.
