I am so happy he is remaining a Laker. This kid is incredible. Almost the closest one to Michael Jordan or Dr J who can fly in a slam dunk

EL SEGUNDO – The Los Angeles Lakers have re-signed free agent guard Shannon Brown, it was announced today by General Manager Mitch Kupchak. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released.
“Shannon was an important member of our team and played a valuable role in helping us win the last two NBA championships,” said Kupchak. “We’re aware that he had several attractive offers from other teams and are very happy that he chose to remain a Laker.”
Brown, a two-time NBA Champion with the Lakers, was originally acquired by the team on February 7, 2009 as part of a trade with the Charlotte Bobcats. He appeared in 82 regular season games including seven starts last season, averaging a career-best 8.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 20.7 minutes. In 23 postseason games, Brown averaged 4.9 points and 1.3 rebounds in 14.1 minutes.
A participant in the 2010 Sprite Slam Dunk Contest during All-Star Weekend, Brown led the Lakers in scoring this past season on three occasions and recorded his first career double-double with career-highs in points (27) and rebounds (10) in a February 16th victory over Golden State.
Originally selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers with the 25th overall pick in the 2006 NBA Draft, Brown, a 6’4” guard out of Michigan State, has appeared in 174 games (16 starts) during his four-year NBA career, averaging 6.1 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.1 minutes
