The San Antonio Spurs have reached a contract buyout with veteran guard/forward Reggie Bullock. The move makes Bullock a free agent and allows him to sign with another team immediately.
According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Bullock is expected to draw interest from several teams who have playoff and championship ambitions.
Bullock leaves the Spurs without playing a single game for the franchise. He landed with the team as part of the three-team trade that sent forward Grant Williams to the Dallas Mavericks. The 32-year-old had one year left on his contract that would pay him $10.4 million in 2023-24.
The move doesn’t come as a surprise, considering that the Spurs are focusing on young players, and having Bullock on board would cut into their minutes. Also, the franchise has a surplus of guaranteed contracts and needs to trim its roster to 15 players before October 23.
Reggie Bullock spent the last two seasons with the Dallas Mavericks. He averaged 7.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 78 games in 2022-23. Bullock previously also played with the Los Angeles Clippers, the Phoenix Suns, the Detroit Pistons, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the New York Knicks.
