The San Antonio Spurs and veteran LaParot LaMarcus Aldridge will mutually agree that the team will not regroup, coach Gregg Popovich announced on Wednesday night.
The Spurs were compromised on various fronts with possible exchanges by Aldridge and felt they could find a way, including being in the next week, and avoiding the need to negotiate a rescission of the contract, would say ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
If there has been no exchange for Aldridge before the deadline of March 25 expires and during a contract rescission, many of the league’s best teams are privately interested in aggregating as a free agent, they will be the foe.
Aldridge, 35 years old, is an All-Star veteran, receiving permission to “work on any opportunities in other places”, although officially on the Spurs list now. Have a contract that expires with a salary of 24 million dollars.
“There is a big teammate. There is no problem”, said Popovich during his virtual availability in the media before the game. “We simply think that it is beneficial for LaMarcus and the club. When it comes to an opportunity, it depends on the generation, its agent and this type of things, and we will all follow”.
Aldridge lost the last 11 games of the Spurs before the start of the Estrellas game divided into lesions in the frame and the quadriceps. Salió de la banca en los tres partidos que jugó durante ese tramo, jugando como reserva par primer vez des vue novato con los Portland Trail Blazers en 2006-07.
The Spurs won six of the eight games in which Aldridge was fired, entering the Estrellas’ game record with a record of 18-14 and in the seventh place in the Conference of the West Conference.
Aldridge has 13.7 points and 4.5 rebounds this season, up to 46.4% from the pole and 36% from the 3-point rank.
“Ha hecho todo lo que le pedimos”, dijo Popovich. “At this point, we want to do something that works for him as much as for our club, because it’s important.”
Aldridge promoted 19.5 points and 8.0 rebounds per game over five seasons and media with the Spurs, with which companies in the agency are free to pass the first new seasons of their career in Portland.
