McLaughlin agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million deal to return to the Spurs on Monday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
The 30-year-old guard is back with San Antonio for 2026-27 after originally coming from the Kings as part of the De'Aaron Fox trade back in 2024-25. McLaughlin played a career-low 6.4 minutes per game over 44 regular-season appearances last year, so he's likely to serve as emergency depth at point guard and provide a veteran presence for the Spurs' young guards.
