The San Antonio Spurs have emerged as a strong suitor for free agent forward
Caron Butler, according to a source.
Butler, the Mavericks’ forward who is coming off a knee injury suffered on
New Year’s Day that caused him to miss the rest of last season, is one of
the most sought-after small forwards in free agency.
He is currently being
pursued by the Heat, Bulls, Spurs, Clippers, Nets, Pistons and Bucks,
according to the source. The Sacramento Kings were also initially interested
in Butler, but have fallen off the hunt in the last couple of days. Butler,
who works out in Chicago in the offseason with trainer Tim Grover, is
expected to meet with the Bulls sometime in the next few days before making a
decision on where he wants to go.
Butler could still re-sign with Dallas, but the Mavericks apparently have
concerns about their status as a luxury tax payer going forward. With several
other free agents to also decide on, including center Tyson Chandler and
guards J.J. Barea and DeShawn Stevenson, the Mavs won’t be able to keep all
of them.
San Antonio could be looking for a replacement for veteran Richard Jefferson,
who has struggled in his first two seasons there after being acquired in the
summer of 2009. Butler would be a perfect fit in the no-nonsense Spurs’
locker room, and with Tim Duncan entering the last year of his contract, and
guards Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili on the backside of their careers, San
Antonio is preparing to transition quickly from the post-Duncan era with a
new core group including guard Gary Neal, center Tiago Splitter,
forward/center DeJuan Blair and rookie forward Kawhi Leonard, acquired in a
Draft night trade with Indiana for guard George Hill.
目前眾多球隊對Butler有興趣
其中馬刺很可能找Butler來補SF位置
