ESPN.com reported Monday night that they have received confirmation from veteran free agent Chris Webber? that he will return for another stint playing for the Golden State Warriors. According to the report, ESPN received an e-mail from Webber saying he would be in Oakland tomorrow and “It’s a done deal.”

Webber began his NBA career with Golden State, won NBA Rookie of the Year honors, and then had a falling out with coach Don Nelson. The conflict forced the Warriors to trade Webber to Washington, during the next season. Nelson was fired not much later, and the team went into a tailspin. Warriors General Manager Chris Mullin, who played for Nellie, resigned him before last season, and the Warriors made the Post Season for the first time since Nelson’s previous reign.

Nelson says his relationship with Webber, was long ago repaired, and he believes the veteran will be the difference between Golden State making the playoffs?or not.? Webber said he will reveal his reasons for signing with the Warriors when the team makes the formal announcement.
