The 36-year old Finley is about to be released by the Spurs:
The San Antonio Spurs have agreed to release former All-Star guard Michael Finley later Monday to allow Finley to pursue opportunities with other teams, according to sources close to the situation.
Finley
was a key member of San Antonio's 2007 championship team after leaving
the Spurs' longtime rivals in Dallas but has struggled to earn playing
time this season from coach Gregg Popovich.
As long as the Spurs
waive the 36-year-old before midnight Monday, Finley will be eligible
to play in the playoffs for another team.
But Finley, who was
earning $2.5 million in the final year of his contract with the Spurs,
must clear waivers before choosing his next team. Finley appeared in
just 25 of San Antonio's first 57 games, averaging 3.7 points in 15.8
minutes. He turns 37 on Saturday.
