NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2012 – The San Antonio Spurs today assigned rookie forward Malcolm Thomas to the Austin Toros, the Spurs’ NBA D-League affiliate. The assignment marks the 31st time an NBA player has been assigned to his NBA D-League affiliate during the 2011-12 season and is the second assignment for Thomas this season. He was originally assigned from the Los Angeles Lakers to the L.A. D-Fenders on Dec. 17, before being waived by the Lakers on Dec. 22.
