From what I've seen, Hairston looks like he lost another ten pounds from the end of last season. Hopefully that makes him even better on the defensive end.
Not quite the story we were looking for.....keep going..

Good, now they need to dump Williams.
I'm just glad he didn't go to another team.
I wasn't very impressed too, his shoot was quite awful but we will see he has surely a good potential
I was thinking it's a spurs FO good move to announce this signing: fans have something to talk about other than Dice. lol
Why does this myth persist?
Hairston is the best wing they have in the in-again out-again Austin rotunda. He'll probably spend more time with the Toros again this year, but will hopefully get some time at the big club regardless.
I like this guy. Hes a good long 3 that would be a good backup for Jefferson...
Goodbye Finley???
McDonald.
http://blogs.mysanantonio.com/weblogs/courtside/3:10 UPDATE: The Spurs just announced the signing via news release.
In an separate release, the Spurs also announced the signing of swingman Malik Hairston, who spent some time with the team last season in between trips to Austin. Hairston's deal is believed to be only partially guaranteed, an incentive to get him to commit to the Spurs for training camp in the fall.
It's not so much about position as it is about roster spots. Haslip, McDyess (fingers crossed) and Blair put the Spurs at 12. I don't see Gist, Hairston and McClinton all three making the team.
Why would it necessarily be goodbye anyone?
Hairston will make the team out of training camp. Book it.
Exactly. They were going to have to sign him in order for him to play in the summer league.
Because Marcus Williams isn't even on the Summer League roster and Malik is. Not to mention, Malik signed a contract even before Summer League started, which is unusual, so things don't look good for Williams.
i love hairston
if he works on his 3 point shot
he can be our ariza book it
I wonder how much of that is guaranteed. My guess would be $200K to $300K.
For what it's worth, Williams is injured.
Williams nursing wrist injury
By Jeff McDonald
There seemed to be a peculiar omission when the Spurs released their summer league roster earlier today.
No Marcus Williams.
Turns out, there is a good reason for Williams' absence. He is injured.
Williams, who finished the season with the Spurs and is expected to join them in training camp this fall, suffered a minor injury to his left wrist during offseason workouts. He should be fine by October.
Williams is injured.
He's not 6'9" but he's pretty damn long and he's a sneaky jumper. Just ask Tayshaun Prince about it.
You really think that much? Didn't Salim Stoudamire get a $200k guarantee last year? He had a better NBA resume than Malik does right now.
the spurs choose d williams over hairiston to finish the year last season now williams is hurt and hairiston is back.
Im not gonna sit here and say the kid is a cant miss,he does have some skills lest c how he continues to develop before we call him trevor ariza
So, let's go thru the most likely roster scenario before the first game of the season.
1. Duncan
2. Bonner
3. RJ
4. Manu
5. TP
6. Haislip
7. Mason Jr.
8. Hill
9. Finley
10. McDyess(Maybe-Not Official Yet)
11. Hairston
12. Blair
So I guess, McClinton and Willaims go back to the D league right?
