After being traded to his fourth team in three years, Shannon Brown may have finally found a home. The Charlotte Bobcats traded him and Adam Morrison to the Los Angeles Lakers halfway through the 2009 season, but this time he may actually stay with the team.
Brown stepped up the 2009 NBA playoffs and made significant contributions off the bench while Morrison continued to ride the pine.
Shannon Brown agrees to a two-year deal with the Lakers.
Phil Jackson certainly had confidence in Brown’s play. And the Lakers‘ owner took notice. As a result, Brown will receive a two-year, $4.2 million contract with the second season at his option. If he wants to build a permanent home in L.A., he’ll have the opportunity to do so. I’m sure he’s sick of bouncing from team to team. And settling in with the NBA Champs shouldn’t be too hard.
