NBA NOTES : Indicted Wingate Will Not Return to Spurs

San Antonio Spurs officials said today that guard David Wingate will not be back with the team after his indictment on rape charges in Maryland.

Wingate remains free on a $10,000 bond; a trial is expected in about four months.

“The Spurs will honor our obligations--if any--to David Wingate,” team owner Red McCombs said in a statement, “but at this time there are no plans for David being a part of our team.”

McCombs said Wingate is likely to be spending his “primary energies” defending himself against the allegations.

“We appreciate David’s contributions to the Spurs last season and we have sympathy for him and all others connected to the various allegations,” the statement said.

Wingate has been unavailable for comment.

Forward John (Hot Rod) Williams said he will decide before the weekend is over whether he will be playing the 1990-91 season with the Seattle SuperSonics or Cleveland Cavaliers--even if it means playing the 1991-92 season in Minneapolis.

“In the next 48 hours, I’ll make my decision,” Williams said late Thursday night.

Williams, 28, would be the major component of a deal that would send Xavier McDaniel and Nate McMillan from the Sonics to the Cavs, while Cleveland would send Williams and an undisclosed sum of money to Seattle.

“The Cavaliers have already told me if I don’t accept this deal they’re going to trade me to Minnesota next year,” Williams said. “But if that’s what happens, that’s OK. . . . Nobody is going to tell me what to do.”

Denver Nuggets point guard Michael Adams has agreed to terms of a multimillion-dollar, five-year contract extension.

Adams had one year remaining on a contract that was to pay him $400,000 this season. He would have been an unrestricted free agent at its conclusion.

Negotiations are not going as smoothly with Chris Jackson, the Nuggets’ top draft choice. Jackson is “tired of waiting” for the club to make a deal, his agent, Eddie Miller, said.
