Rudy Gay intends to sign a two-year, $32 million deal with the San Antonio Spurs.

Gay has spent the past two seasons with the Spurs following his Achilles injury.

The decisions from the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers not to pursue a trade for Kawhi Leonard during the 2018 offseason appear to be at least somewhat misguided with the advantage of hindsight as he led the Toronto Raptors to a ring. The Celtics and 76ers each presumably had enough available assets to give the San Antonio Spurs a better package than the Raptors while leaving enough talent to surround Leonard to compete for a title.

Sources with both the Celtics and 76ers tell ESPN's Kevin Arnovitz that the informed believe that Leonard had every intention of signing in Los Angeles in 2019 was the determining factor in not trading for him.

The Celtics were believed to also be saving their assets for an Anthony Davis trade that ultimately never materialized for them following the expected departure of Kyrie Irving.

The Spurs, meanwhile, wouldn't discuss a trade with the 76ers that didn't include either Joel Embiid or Ben Simmons.

Ettore Messina has agreed to become head coach and president of Olimpia Milano.

Messina joined the San Antonio Spurs as an assistant coach in 2014.

Messina served as interim head coach at the end of the 18-19 season when Gregg Popovich was on bereavement leave. Messina had been a candidate for several head coaching jobs.

The Spurs have also lost Ime Udoka this offseason.

Tony Parker has announced his decision to retire from the NBA after 18 seasons.

Parker spent last season with the Charlotte Hornets after spending his entire career previously with the San Antonio Spurs.

“I’m going to retire,” Parker told The Undefeated. “I decided that I’m not going to play basketball anymore.”

Parker had previously hoped to play 20 seasons. Parker was a six-time All-Star.

Parker told The Undefeated he feels physically good enough to play two more seasons but in his mind he believes it is time to walk away.

“A lot of different stuff ultimately led me to this decision,” Parker said. “But, at the end of the day, I was like, if I can’t be Tony Parker anymore and I can’t play for a championship, I don’t want to play basketball anymore.”

The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to hire Ime Udoka as lead assistant coach.

Udoka has been on the staff of the San Antonio Spurs for seven seasons.

Udoka will replace Monty Williams who was hired this offseason by the Phoenix Suns as head coach.
