Spurs, Marco Belinelli agree to two-year contract

Marco Belinelli has agreed to terms with the San Antonio Spurs on a two-year contract worth about $6 million, a person close to the situation tells Sam Amick of USA TODAY Sports.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal is not yet official.

The move for the seventh-year guard from Italy gives the defending Western Conference champions extra backcourt depth and outside shooting.

With the Chicago Bulls this past season, Belinelli had had worst shooting percentage since his rookie year, at 39.5% from the field and 35.7% from three-point range. Still, he played 25 minutes a game and was a major factor for the Bulls in the playoffs, with Derrick Rose missing the entire season.

The Bulls opted to sign former Milwaukee Bucks guard Mike Dunleavy, Jr. to a similar two-year, $6 million deal rather than bring back Belinelli.

For the Spurs, the signing of Belinelli is their third major move of the summer. The team agreed to re-sign center Tiago Splitter for $36 million over four years on Tuesday, and Manu Ginobili on Wednesday to a two-year deal worth $14 million.

Belinelli will compete for minutes with Ginobili and Danny Green, and the team will also decide whether or not to re-sign restricted free agent Gary Neal.
