Spurs' David West declines $1.5M option for 16-17

San Antonio Spurs forward David West has decided to decline his $1.5 million player option for 2016-17 and evaluate his playing future, according to league sources.

West signed a two-year contract with the Spurs last season, rejecting his $12.6 million option with the Indiana Pacers to sign for the veteran's minimum and pursue a championship in San Antonio.

West, 35, now faces a final decision on continuing his playing career, and would assuredly consider a return to the Spurs.
