JULY 5: The Spurs have officially signed Rice to his two-way contract, the team announced today in a press release.
JUNE 23: The Spurs have agreed to sign undrafted rookie free agent Sir’Jabari Rice to a two-way contract, agent Corey Barker tells Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN (Twitter link).
Rice spent four college seasons at New Mexico State before transferring to Texas for his super-senior year in 2022/23. The 6’4″ guard appeared in 38 games for the Longhorns in 2022/23, averaging 13.0 PPG, 3.5 RPG, and 2.0 APG on .464/.371/.863 shooting.
Rice ranks 17th on ESPN’s list of prospects who didn’t get drafted on Thursday.
With teams permitted to carry up to three players on two-way deals in 2023/24, the Spurs will still have a pair of open two-way slots after agreeing to sign Rice.
