Lynx Sign Augustus

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) _ The Minnesota Lynx have signed two-time WNBA All-Star Seimone Augustus to a multi-year contract. The Lynx disclosed the signing Monday without releasing terms.

Augustus is currently the WNBA's all-time leader at 21.2 points per game. The 6-foot forward was a restricted free agent, coming off a major injury. Augustus tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee in a game last June, cutting short her fourth season in the league after only six games. Augustus played on the U.S. Olympic team in 2008.
