Hornets Acquire Alex Garcia
New Orleans - The New Orleans Hornets announced they have
claimed guard Alex Garcia off of waivers from San Antonio.
Garcia played in two games for the Spurs last season as a
rookie, averaging 1.5 points and 1.0 steals in 6.5 minutes.
"We had a chance to evaluate him last year when he was
healthy and we feel he has a good shot to compete for a
roster spot and help our club," said Assistant General
Manager Allan Bristow.
Garcia missed the first 33 games of 2003-04 while on the
Injured List with a fractured fifth metatarsal in his left
foot. He suffered the injury in a preseason game against the
Hornets on October 22. The 6-3 Brazilian was activated on
January 5 and played in two games. He was placed on the
Injured List on January 9 with a right knee contusion after
the Spurs acquired Charlie Ward and missed the final 47
games of the season.
Prior to joining the Spurs, Garcia averaged 17.9 points, 4.0
rebounds and 4.0 assists for Ribeirao Presto in Brazil's
Paulista League in 2002-03. Those numbers earned him
All-Brazilian League First Team honors and he was named the
league's Forward of the Year.
