Suns Exercise Fourth-Year Options on Barbosa, Diaw
The Phoenix Suns today extended the contracts of Leandro Barbosa and Boris Diaw by exercising the fourth-year options of their rookie scale contracts. Both players will remain under contract with the team through at least the 2006-07 season with the Suns holding the right of first refusal when Barbosa and Diaw become restricted free agents in the summer of 2007.
“Leandro Barbosa and Boris Diaw are two very exciting and talented young players,” said Suns President and General Manager Bryan Colangelo. “We look forward to their continued development and contributions.”
Barbosa, 22, whose draft rights (28th overall in the 2003 NBA Draft) were acquired from the San Antonio Spurs for a future first-round pick on June 26, 2003, owns career averages of 7.5 points, 1.9 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 133 games (52 starts) over two seasons with the Suns.
In the 2005 preseason, Barbosa is averaging 9.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 3.8 assists (tied for 27th in the NBA) in 24.5 minutes in six games.
The 6-3, 188-pound guard led his native Brazil to the gold medal last summer at the 2005 FIBA Americas Championship in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and was named to the All-Tournament Team after averaging 20.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 2.1 steals in eight games.
Diaw, 23, who was acquired from the Atlanta Hawks in a sign-and-trade deal along with two conditional first-round draft picks for guard Joe Johnson on August 19, 2005, averaged 4.6 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 142 career games (62 starts) in his first two NBA seasons with Atlanta.
In the 2005 preseason, the 6-8, 215-pound swingman is averaging 5.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists (16th) and 1.57 blocks (18th) in 22.6 minutes
in seven games.
Diaw earned a bronze medal at the 2005 European Championships last summer and was named to the All-Tournament Team after averaging 13.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.4 assists in seven contests for France.
