NBA: Trail Blazers sign Camby to 2-year extension
Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — Marcus Camby has signed a two-year contract extension with the Portland Trail Blazers.
Terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed Tuesday.
The 6-11, 235-pound center was acquired from the Los Angeles Clippers on Feb. 16 in exchange for Travis Outlaw and Steve Blake. He started 23 regular season games for the Trail Blazers, reinforcing a position depleted by injuries to Greg Oden and Joel Przybilla.
Portland went 17-6 with Camby in the lineup, and the 36-year-old grabbed 17 rebounds Sunday as the Trail Blazers beat Phoenix in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series.
In a statement, general manager Kevin Pritchard said Camby has been a "great fit for us."
