Sandro Mamukelashvili returns to Spurs on a one-year deal

Sandro Mamukelashvili is re-signing with the Spurs on a one-year, $2.2M deal, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski tweets.

The Spurs pulled their $2.7M qualifying offer to Mamukelashvili last week, making him a free agent. However, the two parties had interest in working out another agreement.

Mamukelashvili, a 2021 second pick, signed a one-year, minimum-salary deal after becoming a free agent last summer. He played one-and-a-half seasons with Milwaukee before joining San Antonio during the 2022-23 season.

Last season, Mamukelashvili appeared in 46 games (five starts) and averaged 4.1 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 9.8 minutes. He received extended playing time in April and averaging 11.6 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 26.1 minutes over seven games.

The 25-year-old, who attended Seton Hall, joins the mix of players competing for playing time at power forward and center.
