Antonio McDyess Will Sign With the Spurs

by Matt WatsonFiled under: Pistons, Spurs, NBA TransactionsAntonio McDyess has agreed to sign a three-year deal worth the full mid-level exception with the Spurs on Wednesday, giving Tim Duncan arguably his most reliable sidekick in the post since David Robinson retired. For a team that looked beaten down and weary in the playoffs last year, you wouldn't think the addition of a 34-year-old power forward with a history of knee problems would prop open the window of success, but it does. Playing just 30 minutes a game last season, McDyess fell just shy of a double-double, averaging 9.6 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. Spurs general manger R.C. Buford confirmed the agreement, which should become official later this week, with Mike Monroe of the San Antonio Express-News on Wednesday night.Antonio McDyess Will Sign With the Spurs originally appeared on Fanhouse NBA Blog on Thu, 09 Jul 2009 06:30:00 EDT .
