The San Antonio Spurs have waived Isaiah Roby and claimed Sandro Mamukelashvili off waivers, the team officially announced Friday. In addition, Mamukelashvili’s contract has been turned into a standard status.
Roby played three seasons for the Oklahoma City Thunder, as he averaged 9.1 points and 2.5 boards for them. He was waived by the Thunder last offseason, and the Spurs eventually picked him up.
Roby hasn’t played a game yet since Feb. 13 upon sustaining an ankle injury against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Meanwhile, Mamukelakshvili was chosen by the Milwaukee Bucks as their second-round prospect in the 2021 Draft out of Seton Hall. Given the club’s title aspirations and frontcourt logjam bannered by Giannis Antetokounmpo, Brook Lopez, and Bobby Portis, he wasn’t able to gain much playing time under Mike Budenholzer’s watch, recording 2.4 markers and 2.3 boards sinc3 last season.
Upon the acquisition of Mamukelashvili, the Spurs now have 17 players on their lineup.
