The San Antonio Spurs filled up another roster spot with a free agent signing that sees them bring back a familiar face.

The Washington Wizards completed their fourth trade of the 2025 offseason earlier tonight. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Wizards are sending recently acquired Kelly Olynyk to the San Antonio Spurs in exchange for Malaki Branham,

One likely reason for bringing McLaughlin back is the Spurs can use the veteran’s minimum to keep the $3.1 million that remains of their Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception and $5.1 million of the Bi-Annual Exception, which they can in turn use on their remaining two roster spots.

The NBA 2K26 Las Vegas Summer League kicks off Thursday, July 10 and the San Antonio Spurs headline tonight's primetime action. And with both the California Classic and the Salt Lake City summer leagues now wrapping up play, all eyes will turn to Sin City.

In addition to this year’s rookie class, the Wizards will send out their rising sophomores for the exhibition showcase in Las Vegas.

The San Antonio Spurs traded for center Kelly Olynyk Tuesday, a deal that gives them another shooting big man and closes the book on a big part of their disastrous trade of Derrick White.

Wesley is joining the Wizards after spending three seasons with the Spurs, most recently averaging 3.7 points, 2.0 assists and 1.1 rebounds in 11.8 minutes across 58 games during the 2024-25 campaign. The young guard joins a crowded backcourt that includes recent additions like veteran CJ McCollum and 2025 NBA Draft No. 6 overall pick Tre Johnson.

The San Antonio Spurs traded Blake Wesley and Malaki Branham to the Washington Wizards for Kelly Olynyk, and Jeremy Sochan was quick to drop his reaction.
