AUGUST 3RD, 1:50pm: The deal is official, the team announced (Twitter link).
6:09pm: Miller will receive a one-year deal for the veteran’s minimum, according to Marc J. Spears of Yahoo Sports (on Twitter). He adds that Miller goes back with T’Wolves assistant Ryan Saunders from their time together with the Wizards.
JULY 29TH, 5:55pm: The Wolves have signed guard Andre Miller, according to Shams Charania of RealGM (on Twitter). The terms of the deal have yet to be reported.
Miller, 39, began the season with the Wizards as a backup for John Wall but a February trade sent him out west to the Kings. Coach George Karl was known to be fond of Miller and pushed the front office to make the deal. Shortly after going from the nation’s capital to California’s capital, Miller indicated that he would be interested in re-signing. Team exec Vlade Divac said recently that the Kings were in touch with Miller, but for one reason or another, that reunion did not take place.
In 81 games last season, Miller averaged 4.4 PPG and 3.5 APG in 15.5 minutes per contest. The well-traveled Miller is now set to join his eighth team as he enters his 17th season in the league.
He’s still in the league? Geeez!!!
Lo Brown better option I feel but whatever
They’re bring him in for his knowledge and to be a mentor to the young guards on the team
Other way around…..They actually brought in all the young guys just to support the crowning jewel in Miller. This is the master plan all along!
Having Miller and Garnett on the roster is like having two extra coaches on staff.
The could be a precursor to Miller joining the T-Wolves’ staff after the season.
Aww, I liked Lo Brown.
