    Drew Gooden agreed to a buyout with the Sacramento Kings and the San Antonio Spurs are the favorite to sign him for the rest of the regular season and playoffs, two league executives said on Sunday night.

    Gooden came to Sacramento on Feb. 19 in a trade with the Chicago Bulls, and it had been expected that the last-place Kings would buy him out, save some money and allow the power forward to move to a contender. The Cleveland Cavaliers are also a contender for Gooden.

    The Kings beat Sunday’s midnight Eastern deadline for Gooden to be eligible to play in the playoffs for another team. Gooden, who makes $7.1 million this season, has an expiring contract. The Kings saved themselves approximately $1.8 million with the buyout agreement.

    The Spurs have wanted badly to add frontcourt help, and nearly pulled off a trade deadline deal for Los Angeles Clippers center Marcus Camby. Gooden could give the Spurs much-needed size if they face the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference playoffs.

    The Oklahoma City Thunder also reached a buyout with veteran forward Joe Smith, and several league executives believe Smith is headed to the Cavaliers. If the Cavs and Smith reach an agreement quickly, Gooden would almost certainly wind up with the Spurs.

    If Smith and Gooden clear waivers Wednesday morning, they will be free to sign with any team of their choosing.

    The New Jersey Nets also waived forward Stromile Swift on Sunday.

    Could be worse. He rebounds at a good clip and can score enough which makes up for the rest of his play and his general baggery.

    Definitely not the shotblocking/intimidator type. But at this point beggars can't be choosers.

    Holy ! Is this True? Could the Spurs have actually landed Gooden? I've read the article-any other sources?

    I'm guessing they did it today because he still would be.

    Assuming they come to terms with him, which roster spot will the Spurs open up for Gooden? Who will they let go?
