Report: Spurs Nab Richard Jefferson

by Tom ZillerFiled under: Bucks, Spurs, NBA Rumors, NBA TransactionsSan Antonio needed a major infusion of offensive talent this season, and it appears the team has found it. Multiple league reports indicate the Spurs have traded for Milwaukee's Richard Jefferson, sending away only bit players Bruce Bowen (age 38), Kurt Thomas (age 36) and Fabricio Oberto (age 34), according to Yahoo!'s Adrian Wojnarowski.Jefferson has been in Wisconsin for one year, following last June's draft day trade which sent Yi Jianlian and others to New Jersey. Jefferson has always been a moderately efficient scorer, and he should provide some relief for Tony Parker and Tim Duncan in the Spurs starting line-up. He's not quite an ace defender, but he played hard for Scott Skiles last season and hasn't missed a game in two seasons.Report: Spurs Nab Richard Jefferson originally appeared on Fanhouse NBA Blog on Tue, 23 Jun 2009 13:58:00 EDT .
