El Segundo, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Lakers added depth to their
frontcourt on Thursday by signing veteran center Theo Ratliff.
The Los Angeles Times reports it's a one-year deal for the veteran's minimum
of $1.35 million.
The 37-year-old Ratliff, entering his 16th NBA season, averaged 5.1 points,
4.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocked shots in 28 games for the Charlotte Bobcats last
season. He started the season with San Antonio and averaged 1.6 points and 1.9
boards in 21 contests with the Spurs.
"I've had a long and very rewarding career, and joining a storied and
legendary franchise such as the Lakers adds an even more special element,"
Ratliff said. "I look forward to playing for Coach (Phil) Jackson and with
great players such as Kobe (Bryant), Derek (Fisher), Pau (Gasol), Lamar
(Odom), Ron Artest, Andrew Bynum and all my other new teammates, and hopefully
to helping the Lakers win a third straight championship."
Originally selected by the Detroit Pistons in the first round of the 1995 NBA
Draft (18th overall), Ratliff has twice been named to the NBA All-Defensive
Second Team (1999 and 2004) and has led the league in blocked shots three
times (2000-01, 2002-03 and 2003-04).
