NBA 2018-19 Free Agency: Worst Contract By Team - Southwest Division

#3 San Antonio Spurs - Marco Belinelli

Belinelli's arrival keeps the Spurs one of the oldest teams in the NBA

San Antonio was tied last year for the second oldest team in the NBA, with an average age of 28.9. Instead of trying to rejuvenate the roster, possibly through the Kawhi Leonard trade, they kept their average age around 29 after re-signing Rudy Gay and adding DeRozan, Cunningham and Marco Belinelli.

While DeRozan is a worthy All-Star and Cunningham signed for just a minimum deal, Belinelli got a 2-year/$12 million contract from the Spurs. His off-the-bench production for Philly was great, but they only took the Italian sharpshooter for a midseason minimum deal, after he was bought out by Atlanta.

Additionally, San Antonio already has a guard-heavy roster; including Belinelli, the Spurs have seven guards on their roster, perhaps eight if you include Manu Ginobili. It doesn’t seem wise for them to pile up guards while their forward depth is lacking.

Belinelli is a welcome addition to any playoff team, but the price they had to pay to bring him along is too high, especially considering the number of guards they already had in place.
