The Spurs have agreed to a two-year deal with Australian center Jock Landale, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Landale, a 25-year-old, 6’11 center, is fresh off winning the 2021 NBL Grand Final MVP. He averaged 16.4 PPG, 7.8 RPG, 2.2 APG and 1.5 BPG while shooting 38.9% from three on 149 total attempts.
The Spurs are light in established front-court players, leaving the possibility of Landale to carve out a role for himself, especially if newly-signed Zach Collins is unable to stay healthy. With the team officially losing Rudy Gay and DeMar DeRozan, the youth movement appears to be in full swing in San Antonio.
