New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations and Head Coach
Isiah Thomas announced today that guard Allan Houston has been re-signed as a
free agent after a two-season absence from the court.
"After much thought and prayer, I have decided to return to the NBA as a
member of the New York Knicks. I have worked extremely hard in the last year
and a half to accomplish my dream of playing in the NBA again," Houston said.
“After my wife and I were blessed with the birth of our fourth child last
week, I realized that New York is where I am supposed to be, and the Knick
uniform is the one I want to wear. I have seen the Garden in some of its best
moments, and I truly believe that this team is on the verge of experiencing
that again. This team is hungry and energetic. I hope to contribute in the
weeks and months ahead.
“Thank you to all of the Knick fans and those that have supported me. I will
always be a Knick, and I am committed to helping this team compete for a
championship."
Originally retiring on Oct. 17, 2005 following training camp two seasons ago,
Houston is the team’s fourth leading scorer in franchise history during the
regular season (11,165) and eighth leading scorer during the playoffs
(1,139). Only NBA legends Patrick Ewing, Walt “Clyde” Frazier and Willis
Reed have scored more points during their regular season careers with the
orange and blue. On Oct. 4, 1999, he was named a team captain, and held that
title for six seasons. He was selected to be a member of the 2000 and 2001
NBA All-Star teams and was a member of the Gold medal-winning United States
team at the 2000 Summer Olympic Games in Sydney.
On May 16, 1999, the Louisville, KY native authored one of the most memorable
shots in club history with a game-winning runner at Miami in the closing
seconds of Game Five in the first round of the 1999 NBA Playoffs. After
defeating the Heat, the Knicks went on to defeat the Atlanta Hawks in the
conference semifinals and Indiana Pacers in the conference finals to make
their first NBA Finals appearance since 1994.
The preseason roster is now at 20.
