The Philadelphia 76ers signed free agent guard Kareem Rush on Tuesday to help bolster the team's 3-point shooting.

Terms of the deal were not released.

The 6-foot-6, 215-pound Rush has averaged 6.8 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 314 games in five NBA seasons.

Last season with the Indiana Pacers, he averaged 8.3 points, a career-best 2.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 21.2 minutes per game and shot 39 percent from 3-point range.

The Golden State Warriors have a reputation of being a team that struggles with rebounding, but so far this offseason, that doesn't seem to be an issue. With the shocking news that one of the team's captains and leaders, Baron Davis, had decided to opt out of the final year of his contract and sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, the Warriors' executives have recovered just fine.

The Rockets are contenders after dealing for the rugged -- and risky -- Ron Artest, says Chris Mannix.

Free-agent shooting guard Kareem Rush signed Tuesday with the Philadelphia 76ers.

A federal judge in Brooklyn has sentenced former NBA referee Tim Donaghy to 15 months in prison for taking payoffs from a professional gambler for inside tips on games.

The Hawks completed their deal with Maurice Evans on Tuesday, locking up a replacement for sixth-man Josh Childress.

The 6-foot-5 Evans started 47 times for the Orlando Magic last season and averaged a career-high 9.3 points. He was quickly targeted by Atlanta after Childress, a restricted free agent, stunned Atlanta last week by signing with Greek powerhouse Olympiakos.
