San Antonio Spurs cut relationship with LaMarcus Aldridge

The San Antonio Spurs are close to trading star center LaMarcus Aldridge of Dallas, Texas. That is because on Wednesday, the Spurs organization and Aldridge came to an agreement that the 35-year-old would no longer suit up for the silver and black, despite the fact that Aldridge is from the Lone Star State, according to Tim McMahon of ESPN.

So far this season, Aldridge has seen a reduction in playing time, as he is averaging less than 30 minutes per game (25.9), for the first time since his rookie season of 2006-07, when he averaged 22.1 minutes per game. Aldridge is also averaging 13.7 points per game, and 4.5 rebounds per game, with a field goal percentage of .464, three-point percentage of .360, and free-throw percentage of .838.

There is no doubt despite the fact Aldridge is near the end of his NBA career, he has a lot to still give. One possible destination could be the Dallas Mavericks. In Dallas, Aldridge could provide leadership and knowledge to Luka Doncic, the Slovenian phenom, who is one of basketball’s rising superstars.

Aldridge is the second Spurs superstar that has wanted out in San Antonio in recent years. In 2018, San Antonio parted ways with Kawhi Leonard and traded him to the Toronto Raptors. Leonard was instrumental in bringing the Raptors their only championship in franchise history in 2019.

With Aldridge’s time in San Antonio coming to an end, one must also realize the Spurs are still in the thick of things in the NBA’s Western Conference. San Antonio is at 18 wins and 15 losses, and interestingly are tied with the Mavericks for seventh place in the West.
