Spurs Waiting For Maggette To Make Decision

The Spurs are awaiting the next move of free agent forward Corey Maggette as they remain the favorites to land him for the $5.8 million midlevel exception, according to The San Antonio Express-News.

They would prefer to know where Maggette will end up, especially if it's in San Antonio, before targeting other players and negotiating with their own.

However, Corey has drawn interest from Boston, Utah, Orlando, Detroit, Cleveland, and New Orleans. In addition, Philadelphia and Golden State are possible contenders with the cap space to outbid any midlevel offer.
