Not huge news, but I'm happy about it nonetheless.

Good to hear Peterson is being retained.

Makes sense to retain one guy who was around last year.

Perhaps now with Akana gone, Peterson will get a chance to work with Yi.

That's my hope, too: that he'll have no other options. Of course, there's always the nothing option. From the few quotes we've heard from Peterson about Sessions, he seems extremely eager to help guys who want him to help them, but it sounds like Sessions came to him more than the other way around. Hopefully Yi can work on his ball-handling and hand strength this summer without Peterson and without two healthy knees.

It's highly doubtful that Yi will have much time to work on anything with his schedule this summer..
