Theo Ratliff returned to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, seven years after he was traded from the team during its run to the NBA Finals.

The 35-year-old Ratliff played 26 games for Minnesota and Detroit and appeared in 12 of the Pistons' 17 playoff games.

Terms of Ratliff's deal with the Sixers weren't disclosed.

"We're very fortunate to sign a player of Theo's caliber," general manager Ed Stefanski said. "He is a consummate professional, both on the court and off, who will provide us with additional depth in the frontcourt while also serving as a mentor to some of our younger players."

Ratliff has played for six teams during his 13 NBA seasons, including parts of four years with the Sixers from 1997-2001. In 705 career games, Ratliff has averaged 7.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.6 blocks in 27 minutes.
