The Warriors have added another effective role player in signing Maurice Evans to a 3-year, $6.4 million dollar contract. Evans is 29 years old so he still likely has a lot of good basketball in his future. Evans played in 75 games (47 starts) for the Magic & Lakers last season and he averaged 22.9 minutes, 8.9 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. Look for Evans to be coming off the bench for the Warriors which will suit his style well. Evans has now played in 306 games (69 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 19.2 minutes, 7.0 points, 2.6 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. This was a good move for the Warriors as Evans has some game.

UPDATE: After agreeing to a deal with the Warriors, Evans has apparently reneged on the deal as he wants more money. He signed with the Hawks for 3-years and $7.5 million bucks.
