Andre Iguodala Signs a Six-Year Contract with the Sixers
August 19, 2008
The long wait is finally over. Sixers swingman Andre Iguodala will stay in Philadelphia after signing a new contract for six year years reportedly worth $80 million.
Iguodala was a key factor of the Sixers’ playoff appearance last season, their first in three years. The Sixers obviously wanted to build on their success the previous season and signed big man Elton Brand from the L.A. Clippers. With Brand in the mix, it was only appropriate to re-sign Iguodala and keep him in Philadephia.
Iguodala, a four year NBA veteran, averaged 19.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 2.1 steals in 82 games last season.
