Wolves exercise options on Foye, Brewer.
October 31st, 2008 Posted in NBA basketball newsWolves exercise options on Foye, Brewer. The Minnesota Timberwolves exercised team options for point guard Randy Foye and swingman Corey Brewer on Wednesday.
Foye’s fourth-year option is worth nearly $3.6 million. After missing the first 41 games with a knee injury last year, he returned to average 13.1 points, 4.2 assists and 3.3 rebounds.
Brewer’s third-year option is worth nearly $3 million. He struggled on offense as a rookie last year, averaging just 5.8 points. However, the Wolves have been pleased with his defense on a team that has had trouble on that end of the floor.
That defensive prowess earned him a spot in the starting lineup of the team’s season opener on Wednesday night against Sacramento.
