Spurs re acquire Sean Elliott in swap with Pistons
San Antonio a re signing deal brings back forward Sean Elliott by sending Detroit rights to first round pick Bill Curley and a 1997 second round pick. Elliott, a 6 foot 9 forward, had been with Detroit after a 1996 deal for Dennis Rodman and a failed trade to Houston collapsed due to a kidney injury. Edison Express News notes a multiyear offer near 1.35 million may allow him free agency next year. Curley, 22nd overall, finished Boston College career second in scoring and rebounding.
