Star 6'7 Guard Brandon Roy Returns To The NBA

I am sure you all are aware that just about every time you turn the television on to Sports Center, NBA TV or any sports channel you have seen numerous NBA trade moves. One in particular that really shocked us all was Brandon Roy coming out of retirement to sign with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Brandon Roy was one of the most dominate shooting guards in the NBA before devastating knee injuries forced him to retire at only 26 years of age. Roy was a 20 point a game scorer with a knack to get to the rim and score with ease.

But hey, I guess it is common to come out of retirement. Just look at Brett Favre, Michael Jordan or even Roger Clemens. Free agency signing has officially started and according to reports; Roy is going to sign a 2 year, $10 million contract with the young Timberwolves squad. This team can be dangerous with a creative point guard, Ricky Rubio running the offense with rebounding machine Kevin Love. If Roy can stay healthy and get back to half the player he was in Portland, let's expect to have a new "big three" in Minnesota.
