I just heard John K (AP guy) on Barriero say that the Wolves:
- declined team options on Beasley & AR
- extended something or another so that Webster, Miller & Darko's contracts are on the books for another month - this allows them to be included as filler in trades. If we don't make trades including them, expect Webster & Miller to be bought out and Darko to be amnestied -
- are pursuing B Roy (we knew that already) - I've heard just a little more about this and I'm starting to think he might actually good again. Another thing I heard about this - Portland amnestied him, so whatever anyone pays him will be deducted from what Portland owes. Basically, wherever he goes, he'll get the minimum from that team. We don't know if he wants to come here, but he has a relationship with Wolves assistant Bill Bayno, which might help.
- have already made an offer to N Batum. It sounds like we have ~15 mil in cap space, but Portland has said they'll match any offer. This would be an awesome signing if it happens, but I still think its a slim chance we get him. I just found this:

4 years - $45 - 50 mil. Portland is prepared to offer a max deal to Hibbert, so I dont know for sure, but that might help our cause here.
- Steimsma and Jordan Hill are coming to visit. ok fine, we need a backup big.
