Olynyk averaged 8.7 points and 4.7 rebounds in total last season, which he split between the Pelicans and the Toronto Raptors. He also shot a career-high 41.8% from the 3-point line. The 33-year-old has one year left on a two-year, .25 million deal he first signed in the Raptors.
But Olynyk should be a solid piece in San Antonio, and give the franchise another big man after they landed Luke Kornet in free agency.
