Spurs Get Carr, Kings’ Top Scorer, for Schintzius and Second-Round Pick
The San Antonio Spurs traded center Dwayne Schintzius and a 1994 second-round draft pick to the Sacramento Kings Monday for forward Antoine Carr.
The 6-foot-8 Carr, 30, is a seven-year NBA veteran from Wichita State who led the Kings in scoring last year with 20.1 points per game. “We acquired a player who will help up immediately,” said Bob Bass, the Spurs’ vice president of operations. “For a man his size, he has shown he can shoot from outside, and he can play either forward position.”
The 7-2 Schintzius, 22, averaged 3.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in his rookie season last year as backup to center David Robinson. Schintzius was the Spurs’ first-round draft pick and the 24th selection overall in 1990.
