It looks like Damon Stoudamire is moving to San Antonio as he’ll be wearing a Spurs shirt from now on since he finally reached a buyout agreement with the Memphis Grizzlies last Saturday.
Before committing to the texans, the 34 year old point guard was handling other options including the Celtics, Suns and the Raptors, the lattest a team he knows well as he was in their roster for the 1995-96 season, winning the NBA Rookie of the Year while playing for them.
Stoudamire arrives at a great moment to the home of the defending NBA champions, as their big three, Duncan, Ginobili and Parker have being taking turns on picking up injuries. San Antonio is eagering to have a guy of experience like him on the court as soon as possible in order to bring some trust to the Spurs, who has lost 3 in a row.
He will mostly play instead of Tony Parker who will seat for a few more games due to a heel injury but Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is hoping to get him back for the playoffs.
He also expressed an interest of joining the Celtics where he’ll be the perfect complement for Rajon Rondo, but Boston are more enticed to acquire Sam Casell from the Clippers.
