PATFO gave Brown the second and last 10-day contract they can give him. It is likely that he was signed to a second contract to fill out the bench as the Spurs regain their health, and not as someone that the Spurs think can help them long term.
The official release:
SPURS SIGN SHANNON BROWN TO SECOND 10-DAY CONTRACT
SAN ANTONIO (February 12, 2014) - The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have signed guard Shannon Brown to a second 10-day contract.
