According to a report in the El Paso Times, the Spurs have signed Mexican guard Anthony Lever Pedroza to a one-year non-guaranteed contract.
Pedroza, son of former NBA player Fat Lever, was impressive for the Mexican National Team at the FIBA America’s Championship. He averaged 13 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game over an eight game span.
His most impressive games came against the United States and Venezuela. Against the US, he racked up 19 points, six rebounds and four assists. Against Venezuela, he scored 27 points on 8 of 10 shooting from the field and 2 of 3 on three-pointers.
The signing means Pedroza will be in training camp next week and will battle it out for the last roster spot. He’ll most likely see Brazil’s Alex Garcia in camp and possibly C.J. Watson and Charles Lee.
Next week we’ll take a closer look at some of the players in Spurs training camp with a profile per day starting on Tuesday.
