(Sports Network) - Sweet-shooting but oft-injured guard Allan Houston has signed with the New York Knicks and will attempt another comeback with his former team.
Houston, who is fourth on the Knicks' career scoring list, signed a free-agent deal Thursday and will attend training camp starting next week. Only franchise legends Patrick Ewing, Walt Frazier and Willis Reed have scored more points during their regular season careers with New York.
Houston, a two-time NBA All-Star and a member of the Gold medal-winning United States team at the 2000 Summer Olympic Games in Sydney, originally retired in October of 2005 with chronic knee pain.
Meanwhile, the Knicks also inked free agent guard/forward Dan Grunfeld to an undisclosed contract. An undrafted free agent out of Stanford, Grunfeld is the son of current Washington Wizards (web|news) president, Ernie Grunfeld.
The elder Grunfeld was a part of the Knicks organization for over 17 years as a player (1982-86), broadcaster (1986-1989), assistant coach (1989-1990) and general manager (1991-1999).
