The Orlando Magic have signed free agent guard Tyronn Lue, General Manager John Gabriel announced. Per team policy, terms of the deal are not disclosed.

Realizing the importance of the point guard position, we are ecstatic about signing Tyronn,? says Gabriel. ?He had many options, but in the end him coming to Orlando was the right fit for everyone.?

Lue (6?, 178, 5/3/77, Ta-Ron Loo) appeared in 75 regular season games with Washington last season, averaging 8.6 ppg., 3.5 apg. and 2.0 rpg. in 26.5 minpg. He started in 24 outings, averaging 11.6 ppg., 5.0 apg., 2.9 rpg. and 1.08 stlpg. in 36.2 minpg. during that span. Lue ranked fourth in the NBA in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.42). He scored in double figures 28 times and led the Wizards in assists in 16 games. Lue notched his first career double-double in 2002-03, notching 18 points and a career-high 11 assists at Indiana on Feb. 25.

?Tyronn is a young, energetic, athletic point guard,? says head coach Doc Rivers. ?He?s a proven winner with two championship rings, who has played with great players in Los Angeles (Lakers) and in Washington with Michael Jordan.?
