Spurs' Richard Jefferson Opts Out Of Contract

POSTED: Wednesday, June 30, 2010

SAN ANTONIO -- According to a Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, forward Richard Jefferson has opted out of the last year of his contract.
The 6 feet, 7 inch forward's contract would have guaranteed him $15.2 million.

Jefferson was supposed to be the answer for the Spurs, but just never seemed to find a groove until late in the season.
He averaged just 12.3 points per game, the lowest of his rookie season.

That was a dumb decision by him unless some team (or teams) have showed preliminary interest (tampered)... He's actually a good fit it Miami if they decide to go with Bosh, Wade and splitting the FA money opposed to a third All star.... another place could be a return to New Jersey or to LA (clippers)

but he won't get more than the MLE imo

This really hurts the Spurs. This doesn't even open salary cap space for them.

WOW THANK YOU GOD!!!

God loves you over in SA. I have no other explanation. It's freaking incredible.

[icemanfan]

Wow, Spurs just got a $15M gift.

No way he gets a new contract with that kind of salary. Now he's a MLE guy at best.

Amen! Wow what a great day for Spurs fans!

Does not make sense for him, financially.

Does not make sense for him, financially.

Probably not considering he has been having some crappy seasons. Last year he was ok, but he will probably get no more than the MLE for 3 or 4 years. I really don't see a team with cap room throwing money at him since he isn't that great of a player. He must be really unhappy in SA since he left a lot of money on the table.

Amen! Wow what a great day for Spurs fans!

I'm not sure I understand. The Spurs have no cap space to get anyone else. So isn't having Richard Jefferson better than NOT having him, even if he's a disappointment? At very least, its an expirer.....
