Backup guard Bryn Forbes and the Spurs have agreed a contract that will keep the youngster in San Antonio’s fold, reports Shams Charania (via Twitter) and the San Antonio Express-News‘ Tom Orsborn:
Spurs restricted free agent Bryn Forbes is finalizing an agreement to return to San Antonio, league sources tell Yahoo.
Forbes will re-sign with Spurs on a two-year deal, league sources said.
Last season, Forbes’ second in the NBA, was one in which he played a much bigger role in the Spurs’ rotation. He averaged 19 minutes per game in 80 games (12 of which were starts), recording 6.9 points and 1.4 rebounds per game. It was a marked jump for Forbes, who as a rookie appeared in 36 games with averages of 7.9 mpg, 2.6 ppg and 0.6 rpg.
Forbes’ best month last season came in January, when he averaged 10.3 ppg, 1.7 rpg and 1 apg in 24 mpg.
