Spurs are reportedly interested in Kevin Martin

Minnesota plans to buy out the veteran shooting guard, and Pop & Co. are reportedly interested in him.

Seems like the Spurs are interested in a roster addition after all. After passing on acquiring waived veterans Anderson Varejao and Joe Johnson, San Antonio has expressed interest in guard Kevin Martin, according to Marc Stein of ESPN.

Martin is averaging his lowest minutes played since his rookie season, in favor of developing Minnesota's young roster. He is a year removed from averaging 20 points and 3.6 rebounds -- his highest marks since the 2010-2011 season. The Timberwolves veteran is a pure scorer, and could provide additional offense from behind the arc in the absence of Manu Ginobili.

Stay tuned for further developments.

UPDATE:

The Spurs are reportedly signing recently-waived veteran point guard Andre Miller.
