Shooting guard Kevin Martin has averaged 20 or more points in six different seasons throughout his career but was on the market after the Minnesota Timberwolves waived him on March 1. That is no longer the case after Saturday'snews.
The San Antonio Spurs inked the scorer to a new deal, according to ESPN's Marc Stein. Nick Moyle and Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News confirmed the report.
The timing of Martin’s transition from the Timberwolves to his new team is important. Ananth Pandian of CBS Sports said the guard is eligible to play in the postseason because Minnesota waived him on March 1 before a midnight deadline.
