Three-Time All-Star Added to Provide Shooting & Scoring Punch
July 12, 2006
OKLAHOMA CITY - The New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets announced today that
they have signed free agent forward Peja Stojakovic. Per team policy, terms of
the contract were not released.
”One of our top priorities this summer was to add a sharpshooting scorer who
could stretch the defense and knock down shots off of penetration,” said
General Manager Jeff Bower. “We’re thrilled that we signed the best player
available on the free agent market to fill that role.”
Stojakovic will begin his ninth NBA season as a member of the Hornets. The
6-10, 229-pound forward has compiled career averages of 18.4 points and 5.1
rebounds with a .461 field goal percentage, .399 three-point percentage and
.894 free throw percentage. Stojakovic spent the first seven-and-a-half
seasons of his career with the Sacramento Kings, but was traded to Indiana on
Jan. 25, 2005. He finished last season averaging 19.5 points and 6.3 rebounds
while shooting .404 from three-point range in 40 games for the Pacers.
“Peja coming to the Hornets is probably the biggest free agent signing in the
history of the franchise,” said Hornets Owner George Shinn. “Our fans
deserve the best team possible on the floor when we start the 2006-07 season,
and we’re off to a great start this summer in making that happen.”
Stojakovic was named to the Western Conference All-Star Team in 2002, 2003 and
2004. He was voted to the All-NBA Second Team in 2002-03 after averaging
career-highs of 24.2 points and 6.3 rebounds. The Kings advanced to the
playoffs every season during each of his seven full seasons there (they made
the playoffs just once during the Sacramento era prior to his arrival) and he
finished second in the voting for the 2001 NBA Most Improved Player Award.
Stojakovic is also a two-time winner of the three-point contest at All-Star
Weekend (2002 and 2003).
“I’ve watched Peja develop from an international star to a promising NBA
rookie to an All-Star,” said Hornets Head Coach Byron Scott. “I’ve played
against him, coached him and coached against him and I’ve always regarded him
as a special player.”
Scott was an assistant coach in Sacramento during Stojakovic’s first two
seasons (1998-99 and 1999-00) and played against him in Greece during the
1997-98 season (Scott’s Pananthinaikos team defeated Stojakovic’s PAOK team
in the 1998 Greek Championship Series although Stojakovic was named MVP of the
regular season).
