I realize this isn't BIG news; but for anyone who remembers when the Raps drafted Tucker in the 2nd Round, it was pretty well assumed that Tucker would NOT have an NBA career longer than his Rookie year ... Well, he's now got a 2 year Contract with the Suns. Good for him!
Not sure what kind of games he had in Summer League, but they must have been GOOD!
ADD Guess this should be in the NBA section.
The Phoenix Suns have signed forward P.J. Tucker to a two-year contract.
The Suns say the team's front office and coaching staff were impressed with Tucker's performance in the Las Vegas Summer League, leading to the signing.
The 6-foot-6, 244-pound forward played the last five seasons internationally, with stops in Puerto Rico, Greece, Israel and Germany. Tucker was a second-round draft pick of the Toronto Raptors out of Texas in 2004, the 35th selection overall.
