Milwaukee, WI (Best E Casino) - The Milwaukee Bucks signed guard Tyronn Lue and forward Malik Allen to undisclosed contracts on Thursday. The pair were both midseason acquisitions by Dallas last season, with Lue joining the Mavericks after being waived by Sacramento and Allen being traded from New Jersey. "Tyronn and Malik have been solid contributors and good teammates throughout their NBA careers," Bucks general manager John Hammond said. "They give us added depth at the guard and forward positions, and both bring valuable playoff experience to our roster." Lue, a two-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000 and 2001, has also been affiliated with Washington, Orlando and Houston in his 10 NBA seasons. The 23rd overall pick in the 1998 Draft has logged 8.9 points, 3.3 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 510 career games. Allen, 30, has also spent time with Miami, Charlotte and Chicago during a seven-year career in which the Villanova product has averaged 5.7 points and 3.2 rebounds in 360 games.
