Dominick Barlow is coming off his rookie season, where he played in 28 regular season games for the San Antonio Spurs and averaged 3.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per contest while shooting 53.5% from the field.

On Wednesday evening, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Spurs will re-sign Barlow to another two-way contract.

Via Wojnarowski : "Forward Dominick Barlow is returning to the San Antonio Spurs on a two-way contract, Todd Ramasar of @LifeSportsAgncy tells ESPN."

Since Barlow was on a two-way contract, he also spent time in the G League playing for the Austin Spurs.

In 18 regular season games, the 20-year-old averaged 16.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.7 blocks per contest while shooting 55.3% from the field and 30.4% from the three-point range (he also appeared in 16 Showcase Cup games).

This summer, Barlow played in six NBA Summer League games for the Spurs and averaged 17.0 points per contest in the four games in Las Vegas.

Considering the Spurs are a young team, they are a good franchise for him to continue to develop with.

This past year, the Spurs were tied with the Houston Rockets for the second-worst record in the NBA (22-60).

They have missed the NBA playoffs for four straight seasons, but the franchise has also won five titles since the 1999 season.

Gregg Popovich is widely seen as one of the top-three head coaches in the league, and the Spurs drafted Victor Wembanyama with the first pick in the NBA Draft last month.
