Kendall Brown, a 23-year-old guard entering his third season, left the San Antonio Spurs roster as of Friday, Oct. 16, according to the official roster. No report had preceded the move; it is not announced why he is off the roster or where he goes next. San Antonio now carries 17 players, 15 on standard contracts and three on two-way deals.
The money
