LaMarcus Aldridge, who the Spurs shut down on March 10 and waived Thursday, will join the Brooklyn Nets, according to Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania.
Aldridge is expected to see a significant amount of his minutes at center for the Nets.

The signing would seem to take the Nets out of the bidding for the other bigs who either have been bought out or are likely to be, including Andre Drummond and Gorgui Dieng
Both Woj and Shams — along with Miami Heat execs — believed that Aldridge was headed to Miami but changed his mind and spoke with the Nets in recent days.
