Butler worked out for several other teams before joining Spurs. He's eligible to play in the postseason. Low risk, high reward move for S.A.
He can play in the playoffs. Probably won't, but he is eligible.
We'll see if he can come back enough from the knee injury.
Pop can't possibly want him, won't play him, for this season.
Great pickup I love this move, guy was supposed to be a 1st round pick this year, I don't expect him to make much of an impact this year but for next year and the future he can be a solid 3 besides just shoot which he was one of the best shooters in college along side james anderson. Kinda makes up for the brewer signing with the mavs a little.
good guy to bring in for training camp next season.

Great news. Hopefully we can see what he's got before the playoffs start. Not expecting much but it would be nice to get a glimpse.
If nothing else, it's a low risk/high reward type of signing for possibly next season.
How would he not be?
Because he hasn't played on another NBA team this year.
He was waived by his previous team (Miami) before March 1st, thus he is eligible.
I think it's because he hasn't played an NBA game all year, so he's playoff eligible for any team he signs with, even upto the end of the season.

But practically speaking, he's more like the Spurs' extra draft pick for next year...I'd be shocked if he sees material playing time for Pop...I mean, the guy won't even play Anderson (who should know the system better)...
He has a sense of humor...good...
Wow. Surprising signing, but could be one that reaps substantial rewards.
Now, a couple of questions.
As others have already expressed, would Pop even play the guy?
Is this strictly an end-of-the-year move? Or is it a signing with an eye on the future?
By signing him now, they probably have an unguaranteed option on him for next year.
Dude hasn't played in a full year. I don't see him in the playoff rotation
He might suit up for a game, but I wouldn't be surprised if he is quickly assigned to Austin to finish out their season.

Spurs indeed to sign DaSean Butler, but not expected to play for them this year while finishing rehab on knee.
I highly doubt Pop will give him any more than garbage minutes if he even gets on the active roster, must be a possible guy for the future.
