RAY ALLEN BACK IN SEATTLE
It looks like Ray Allen will stay in Seattle after all.
Allen's agent Lon Babby told the Associated Press on Tuesday that Allen and the Seattle Supersonics have agreed to a new 5-year deal worth $85 million. However, the deal cannot be signed until July 22, but Babby said that Allen will sign the deal at the first available moment.
Allen helped the Sonics win the Northwest Division title in 2004-2005, the team's first division title since 1998. He averaged 23.9 ppg last season, as the Sonics took the eventual world champion San Antonio Spurs to six games in the Western Conference semifinals.
Sonics fans, rejoice!
