Good news!
Barry eligible Sunday: Shooting guard Brent Barry, eligible to sign a new contract with the Spurs on Sunday, has made it clear he wants to re-join the club as soon as he can.
But even if the Spurs re-sign him Sunday morning, it isn't likely he would be in uniform for that afternoon's game.
Neither general manager R.C. Buford nor Popovich would comment about Barry before Friday's game.
The veteran guard is expected to sign a new deal with the Spurs before the team heads to Orlando for a game Tuesday against the Magic.
The Spurs traded Barry, Francisco Elson and a future first-round draft pick to Seattle for Kurt Thomas.
The Sonics subsequently waived Barry.
NBA rules prohibit a released player from re-signing with a team that traded him for 30 days after the completion of a deal.
The Spurs haven't been allowed to examine Barry's injured left calf in the interim, and Barry hasn't been allowed to use the team's training and medical facilities.
