Marco Belinelli is somewhat of an NBA journeyman, but it seems as though the former Chicago Bull has found the perfect fit in San Antonio.
Since being drafted by the Golden State Warriors in 2007, Belinelli has played on four different teams and is a career 38.7 percent three-point shooter. He has also demonstrated capable perimeter defensive ability, adding to the 3-and-D trope that the Spurs seem to love so much.
The thing that makes this trade underrated is that not only will Belinelli be great in San Antonio, but that they will only be paying him $5.6 million over two years, a cheap price to pay for a player as complete and potent as Belinelli.
