Reggie plans to stay | wthr.com

Indianapolis, June 30 - Reggie Miller says he will be back with the Indiana Pacers for his 18th season in the N-B-A.
     
Miller will turn 39 in August and has one year left on his contract with Indiana. He wouldn't talk about his future after the Pacers were eliminated in the Eastern Conference finals by Detroit. But he appeared on C-B-S's "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn" tonight and made his first public comments that he would
play at least one more season.
     
He said the Pacers came close this year and have a "great nucleus of young players."
     
Miller said he wants to go after the championship one more time.

Miller is a five-time All-Star and Indiana's career scoring leader with more than 24-thousand points. He averaged 10-point-one points a game last season, the lowest since he averaged 10 points as a rookie in 1987-88.
