Charlotte Bobcats General Manager Rod Higgins announced today that the team has signed free agent guard Shannon Brown. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The 6-4, 211-pound Brown appeared in 21 games (four starts) split between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls last season, averaging 5.4 points and 1.0 rebound in 11.4 minutes. In two stints in the D-League, Brown played in 10 games, six for the Rio Grande Valley Vipers (Cavaliers affiliate) and four for the Iowa Energy (Bulls affiliate) with averages of 24.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.5 steals in 37.6 minutes. He also played one game for the Albuquerque Thunderbirds in 2006-07, tallying 14 points, six assists and four rebounds in 28 minutes.
An early-entry candidate in the 2006 NBA Draft, Brown was originally selected by the Cavaliers with the 25th overall selection. In two NBA seasons, Brown has appeared in 44 games with nine starts and has averaged 4.3 points, 0.9 rebounds and 0.6 assists.
Brown played three seasons at Michigan State and was named All-Big Ten Second Team by media and coaches and Big Ten All-Defensive Team by the league’s coaches as a junior.
OK guys...I have been waiting for him to get some PT ever since he got drafted by the Cavs. If he doesn't get any with the BOBCATS, something is VERY wrong.
