Tony Parker: ‘I Just Hope I Stay in San Antonio’


WIth his name swirling in trade talk, Tony Parker tells Yahoo! Sports that his wish is to remain as the Spurs’ point guard: “The Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings, who hold the fifth and seventh picks, respectively, have talked to the Spurs about Parker. One league source said the chances of the Spurs reaching a deal with the Kings isn’t likely. Spurs guard George Hill also has drawn some trade interest from teams with picks in the middle of the lottery. ‘I just hope I stay in San Antonio,’ said Parker, who is in town for Steve Nash’s charity soccer game. ‘I love it in San Antonio. I’ve had some great years in San Antonio. I just re-signed four years and I hope I can stay there.’ When asked specifically about possibly being dealt to Toronto or Sacramento, Parker said only: ‘We will see. I love it in San Antonio.'”
