SEATTLE - Seattle SuperSonics General Manager Rick Sund announced today that
Reggie Evans has signed a one-year qualifying offer to remain with the Sonics.
"We’re thrilled to have one of the top rebounders in the NBA back in a Sonics uniform this season," said Sund. "Reggie is a tenacious rebounder and he has always found a way to have an impact on the court. He’s like a bulldog around the boards."
Last season, Evans' third in the NBA, he averaged 4.9 points and a career-high 9.3 rebounds in 79 games. Evans, who was not drafted by an NBA team, signed with Seattle as a free agent on Sept. 30, 2002.
In a related move, the Sonics requested waivers on swingman Omar Thomas, a rookie guard/forward from UTEP. The Sonics now have 20 players in training camp.
