    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> The New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets announced today that they have......and re-signed forward Rasual Bulter. Per team policy, terms of the contracts were not released.

    Butler averaged career highs of 8.7 points and 2.9 rebounds in 79 games for the Hornets last season. The four-year veteran swingman started 19 games (averaging 11.2 points and 4.2 rebounds), including a career-high 32 point outburst in which he made seven-of-nine three-point field goals March 21 vs. the L.A. Clippers. He led the team in scoring four times and reached double figures in 29 games. Butler was originally acquired by the Hornets from Miami in a five-team, 13-player deal on August 2, 2005.

    ?Rasual was a big part of our turnaround last season and I think he?s barely scratched the surface of his talent ,? said Scott. ?His skills really fit in well with our system and I think now he?ll have the chance to continue to develop and come into his own as a player.?
