    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Summer-league sensation Bobby Brown on Wednesday reached terms on a guaranteed contract with the Sacramento Kings, according to NBA front-office sources.

    Sources told ESPN.com that Brown rejected multiple lucrative offers from overseas after netting a two-year deal from the Kings on the strength of a strong debut season as a pro in Germany and a productive showing in Las Vegas as the lead guard for the New Orleans Hornets' summer squad.

    The Hornets were among a handful of NBA teams that tried to sign Brown in the last week, with New Orleans star guard Chris Paul calling the 23-year-old personally to urge him to come to training camp in October. Golden State Warriors coach Don Nelson is another Brown fan who was spotted at several of the Hornets' games in Vegas.

    But the Kings won the race to sign him by commiting two years to Brown, who helped Alba Berlin win the German club championship last season. The second year of Brown's new deal, sources said, is a player option.</div>

    I was actually thinking of a different Bobby Brown. Must be because I just woke up.

    I haven't seen Brown play, so I can't really comment on this signing.
