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.
