The World Famous LayupDrill Rumor Mill
9/4/09
In a surprising turn of events, the Minnesota Timberwolves have come to terms with former Bucks guard Ramon Sessions on a four year deal, worth over $4 million per season. Sessions, who is a restricted free agent, must wait a week to see if the Bucks will match the offer. However, it is all but certain they will not. Sessions had been linked to many teams as potential homes this summer, including the Knicks, Heat, and Clippers, however Minnesota waited it out and got the man they wanted all along.
The Knicks, whom had flirted to sign Sessions for weeks, also made news today, by coming to terms with forward David Lee on a one year deal. The contract is expect to net the double-double machine between $6 and 8 million a season.
With these two moves today, there are still a few prominent free agent guards left to be signed. Allen Iverson, Nate Robinson, and Raymond Felton are all without homes heading into the Labor Day holiday weekend. Of those three, Robinson is expected to be signed first, by the Knicks in a one year deal. Felton could be replaced by Iverson in Charlotte. If that occurs, Felton could land in Memphis or Dallas.
