Sergio Rodriguez Joins Real Madrid

Real Madrid signed former New York Knicks guard Sergio Rodriguez to a three-year contract on Friday. The Knicks acquired Rodriguez last season from the Sacramento Kings as part of the three-team deal that brought former scoring champion Tracy McGrady to New York in February. The 24-year-old Spanish player spent the previous three seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers. The 6-foot-3 Rodriguez averaged 7.4 points and 3.4 assists in 27 games for the Knicks. He averaged 4.3 points and 2.9 assists during his four seasons in the league. Rodriguez was a member of Spain’s world championship-winning team in 2006. Madrid said the player would be officially introduced on Tuesday. Press Release
