Source: Phoenix Suns Website Suns get Grant HillWhen Suns fans last saw Grant Hill at US Airways Center in January, he was being defended by Raja Bell as Shawn Marion blocked a last-minute attempt and preserved a Phoenix victory over Orlando. Hill decided he would like to be between Marion and Bell a lot more – as part of a starting lineup. Hill agreed to terms Thursday with Phoenix on a two-year, $3.8 million contract, including a player option for 2008-09. All that consternation during the past week’s recruiting process turned out to be unnecessary, because Hill favored Phoenix all along. Hill was attracted to the chance to win a championship, because he turns 35 in October and has never been past the playoffs’ first round. He was lured by a system that fits his versatile skills and de-emphasizes practice labor, a major point for a man who has undergone five ankle surgeries since 2000. Hill’s desire to maintain a significant role was met when Phoenix told him he could start alongside Bell, Marion, Steve Nash and Amaré Stoudemire. By Paul Coro NBA Phoenix Suns Home Page
