Spurs re-sign Jordan McLaughlin to 1-year, $3.3 million deal

The Spurs have filled at their required 14th roster spot, and it’s with another returning face. For the second year in a row, Jordan McLaughlin is returning on a minimum deal worth $3.3 million for one year, per ESPN’s Shams Charania.

McLaughlin came to San Antonio with De’Aaron Fox from the Kings in February of 2025 and has been a valuable veteran off the bench for the Spurs. He appeared in 44 games last season, and although he only averaged 2 points and an assist in 6 min per game, he was always ready when called upon, including in the few instances he got rotation minutes when any combination of De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle or Dylan Harper were out.

The signing fills out all the Spurs’ required roster spots, although they can still sign a 15th player if they choose. They also still have one two-way slot they can fill. With the returns of McLaughlin, Harrison Barnes and Julian Champagnie, the Spurs are returning their top 11 players in games played, and the addition of veteran forward Tobias Harris and drafting of big men Tarris Reed and Jayden Quaintance shores up what were considered the only weak areas in the rotation. In other words, the Spurs are running back a team that made the finals and were a few blown leads from winning it all, and they still managed to get better despite limited resources (barring a massive trade, which wasn’t needed).

Welcome back to San San Antonio, Jordan!
