    Spurs re-sign Marks
    Web Posted: 09/07/2005 12:25 AM CDT

    Express-News Staff Writer


    Before he re-signed with the Spurs during his summer of free agency in 2004, Manu Ginobili wanted to know if free-agent center Sean Marks also would be returning to the roster. The two had become fast friends, and Ginobili made sure the Spurs understood he would be more apt to commit to a long-term deal in San Antonio if he knew Marks would be back, too.

    No outside leverage was needed for the Spurs to bring back Marks for a third season. The club announced Tuesday it had re-signed the good-natured 7-footer from New Zealand for the 2005-06 season.

    "Sean is important to the chemistry of our team," Spurs' coach Gregg Popovich said. "We're thrilled to have him back."

    Marks, 30, will be entering his seventh NBA season. A second-round draft pick of the New York Knicks in 1998, he played with Toronto, Seattle and Miami before joining the Spurs for the 2003-04 season. He spent that season on the injured list, with patella tendinitis.

    He suffered a sprained back in training camp before the 2004-05 season and missed the first 42 regular-season games, but played in 23 games, averaging 3.3 points and 2.4 rebounds, before spraining his left foot and missing the final 13 games and the playoffs.

    The Spurs have yet to inform the Utah Jazz and restricted free-agent guard Devin Brown if they are going to match the $2.5 million offer sheet the Jazz gave Brown last week. Barring injury to another guard, or perhaps a trade, they not expected to match the offer.

    On one of the Spurs National Broadcast games the announcer said that Bruce Bowen said Sean Marks is the best team mate he's ever had.

    no. I'm sure they paid no more than the vet minimum.
