Kurt-Thomas

Kurt Vincent Thomas (born 4 October 1972 in Dallas, Texas) is an American professional basketball player with the NBA's Phoenix Suns. Thomas is a 6'9", 235 lb. forward/center known for his hard-nosed playing style and tough defense. He graduated from Texas Christian University. A natural power forward, he spent most of his career playing the center position with the Knicks and Suns. Despite being undersized at that position, he is renowned for his ability to grab rebounds, and for his consistent mid-range jumpshot, a rare commodity amongst big men.

Career transactions:

* Drafted: 1995, 1st round, 10th pick by Miami Heat
* Signed by Heat to three-year contract on October 5 1995
* Traded by Heat with Predrag "Sasha" Danilovic and Martin Muursepp to Dallas Mavericks for Jamal Mashburn on 14 February 1997
* Signed by New York Knicks to three-year, $2.7 million contract on 22 January 1999
* Re-signed by Knicks on 1 August 2000
* Re-signed by Knicks to four-year, $30 million contract extension on 9 March 2004
* Traded by Knicks with draft rights to Dijon Thompson to Phoenix Suns for Quentin Richardson, draft rights to Nate Robinson and cash on 28 June 2005
