The San Antonio Spurs landed free agent Antonio McDyess on Wednesday. McDyess reached a deal with the Spurs and is expected to sign with them later on this week. The deal is for 3 years, $15 million. McDyess spent his last 5 seasons with Detroit, who recently just lost Rasheed Wallace to the Celtics.
With their window for a fifth title shrinking, the Spurs began a busy offseason in June by trading for Milwaukee swingman Richard Jefferson in a four-player deal that pushed San Antonio into the luxury tax.
San Antonio needed size after dealing backups Fabricio Oberto and Kurt Thomas in the Jefferson trade. The deal amounted to a salary dump for the Bucks, who wanted to shed the $29.2 million owed Jefferson over the next two seasons. So the Spurs picked up the lesser-known big man Marcus Haislip and brought back forward Malik Hairston.
