For the first time in over a decade at least, the San Antonio Spurs have a free agent big that is going to be highly sought after and there's more than a .5 percent chance he leaves. Good news for Spurs fans is Tiago Splitter appears to be finally living up to his potential that many believed he possessed when came stateside three years ago.

The problem with that comes this summer when the Brazilian center hits free agency.

Splitter, a restricted free agent this summer, recently spoke with ESPN Brazil about his contract situation and basically said it's not something he's giving much thought and is enjoying his time with the Spurs.

"It has not started yet. I guess we'll just talk about it in June, July. A thing about San Antonio is they talk to players in the middle of the season. And I would not worry about it. It's a team where I'm feeling fine now and I want to stay here "
