The Bay Area will enjoy the Brazilian Blur for one more year.

As reported earlier in July, unrestricted free agent Leandro Barbosa will return to the franchise he helped hoist the Larry O'Brien Trophy in June, the Golden State Warriors. The team announced his re-signing Monday.

Terms of the deal weren't disclosed, but it was previously reported as a one-year, $2.5-million contract.

The 12-year veteran is as seasoned as they come, having been a key contributor for the popular, up-tempo Phoenix Suns of the aughts (2003-10).

The 32-year-old Barbosa will provide relief at the point-guard spot behind Stephen Curry.
