Rudy gay to lakers2/4/2024 In three-plus seasons in San Antonio, Gay has come off the bench for 147 of the 209 regular-season appearances. He also logged 21.6 minutes per game, remains a career low. Gay averaged 11.5 points in his first season with the Spurs, down from 18.7 in his final pre-injury season in Sacramento. In San Antonio, where the Spurs were coming off a 61-win season, he could ease his way back in form without the added burden of being a team’s go-to star. It was a low-cost gamble for the Spurs, and an easy sell for Gay. The Spurs signed Gay to a free-agent deal for two years and $18.4-million. He arrived in San Antonio in the summer of 2017 simply glad to be able to walk again after the brutal injury that ended his time in Sacramento. Gay’s transition - from leading scorer to role player, top-of-the-marquee attraction to supporting actor - has been four seasons in the making. “But this year, I am changing my role to being a different player, try to make as many open shots as I can and try to make plays for others.” “For the most part in my career, I have been asked to take tough shots and make tough shots,” Gay said. Then Gay got on the wrong side of 30, blew out an Achilles tendon with the Kings in 2017 and came to San Antonio to reclaim his career as a bench player.
