Tony Parker reiterated Wednesday that he hopes to remain with the San Antonio Spurs – even if the choice isn’t up to him.
The Spurs have had discussions about trading Parker for a high pick in Thursday’s NBA draft, Yahoo! Sports reported Tuesday. The Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings, who hold the fifth and seventh picks, respectively, have talked to the Spurs about Parker. One league source said the chances of the Spurs reaching a deal with the Kings isn’t likely.
Spurs guard George Hill also has drawn some trade interest from teams with picks in the middle of the lottery.
Parker said he hopes to finish his career in San Antonio.
“I just hope I stay in San Antonio,” said Parker, who is in town for Steve Nash’s charity soccer game. “I love it in San Antonio. I’ve had some great years in San Antonio. I just re-signed four years and I hope I can stay there.”
