LaMarcus Aldridge feels like a rookie again adjusting to life in San Antonio. 

Aldridge spent nine seasons in Portland with the Blazers.

"I don't know where to go, I don't know where anything is," Aldridge said during an appearance Saturday at the George Gervin Academy. "It's like being a rookie all over again."

Aldridge remains at peace with his choice to sign with the Spurs.

"I don't like change," Aldridge said. "That's been a little bit difficult for me, trying to get used to a new city. I got lost like twice yesterday. That's not fun.

"In the end, it should be great for me. Right now, it's been tough because everything is so new."

Aldridge felt "mentally drained" during the free agency process.

Patty Mills has been added to Australia's national team roster for the Oceania Championship.

Australia needed Mills following the ACL tear suffered by Dante Exum.

Mills had initially been left off the roster after the San Antonio Spurs asked him to sit out a series of warmup games.

“I’m looking forward to joining my Boomers teammates for this very important qualification series against New Zealand,” Mills said via statement. “Playing for my country has always been an honor for me. Obviously my shoulder injury last year meant that I had to continue intensive rehab and quality training over the past few months. I’ve done that and will be ready for the Oceania Championships.”

The Oklahoma City Thunder will open the 2015-16 season against LaMarcus Aldridge and the San Antonio Spurs.

It will mark the second time in four seasons that OKC has opened its season against the Spurs.

The Thunder lost to the Spurs by two in San Antonio to start the 2012-13 season.

Boban Marjanovic was ruled out of Eurobasket for Serbia when an MRI by the San Antonio Spurs revealed significant bony edema in his left ankle.

The Serbian team and Marjanovic's agent asked the Spurs to reconsider the decision, but his new NBA team had the authority to keep him out.

“I’m so sorry for everything that happened, I had a great desire and motivation to play for the national team,” Marjanovic told Blic Sport. “With impatience I waited start preparing the national team and work with the screen Djordjevic, but nothing is in my hands. From the first days of preparation there was a great atmosphere in the team, it’s a fantastic group of guys that I am convinced that it will be able to achieve the desired goal and placed on the Olympics.”

Undrafted guard Keifer Sykes had agreed to a training camp contract with the San Antonio Spurs, a league source told RealGM.

Sykes went undrafted out in June out of the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, where he had a standout four-year career.

Sykes played for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA summer league in July.

Marcus Denmon will play in Turkey next season, with the professional team Istanbul Buyuksehir Belediyesi.

Denmon recently played with the Spurs’ Summer League team during their Utah Summer League sequence, where he played in two of the three games and shot 0-of-4 from the floor.
