Spurs sign Joel Anthony for rest of season

After signing him to a pair of 10-day contracts earlier this season, the Spurs announced Sunday that they have inked center Joel Anthony for the remainder of the 2016-17 season.

Anthony signed his first 10-day contract Jan. 23, six days after Spurs center Pau Gasol was diagnosed with a fractured fourth metacarpal in his left hand. Anthony’s second 10-day deal came Feb. 2.

The 9-year veteran has now appeared in eight games for San Antonio, averaging 1.5 points and 1.8 rebounds per game in an average of 6.3 minutes a game.
