Tim Duncan: Takes Pay Cut and Re-Signs With Spurs on Two-Year Deal

Duncan and the Spurs are working to finalize a two-year, $10.4 million deal with a player option for the second year, David Aldridge of TNT reports.

Analysis:

While reports originally stated that Duncan was inclined to take the veteran minimum to make room for the likes of LaMarcus Aldridge and Kawhi Leonard, this deal is still a massive discount for a player like Duncan. Despite approaching 40 years old, Duncan still plays like an All-NBA talent and will now have some pressure taken off him next season with Aldridge joining him in the frontcourt.
