[Who]

Jason Richardson has reached agreement on a four year, $25M deal with the Orlando Magic, league source tells Y! Sports.

@WojYahooNBA

There goes Von Wafer's minutes ... and JJ Redick is back in his proper role too.

Hopefully, J-Rich will give the Magic a bit more this season. Underwhelming, to say the least, last year.

I hope Jrich doesn't help him but I am a Celtic fan.

[Who]

Jason Jones: Westphal said he'd be surprised if his starting 5 wasn't Evans, Thornton, Salmons, Hayes and Cousins. about 17 minutes ago

Tyreke Evans is going to be back at PG this season. At least to begin games.

[Cman]

Source says Mike Bibby will indeed sign a one-year, minimum deal with New York.

- Sam Amick on Twitter.

Nice deal for the Knicks, IMHO.

Aaron Gray has agreed to a one-year deal with Toronto Raptors, league source tells Y! Sports.

@WojYahooNBA

We can scratch him off our wish list.

I would have taken him, but not a difference maker.

If its for the vet min. I'll be a little disappointed. Anything more, and I don't care.

Likely the vet min.

If the Cs can land Kwame with the mini-MLE, that would be quite the steal.

is there any chance we land Rip Hamilton

One day after reaching a surprising agreement with center Tyson Chandler, the New York Knicks are attempting to acquire another notable free agent. The Knicks are zeroing in on Jamal Crawford and trying to add the veteran shooting guard through a sign-and-trade, according to sources close to the situation.

The Knicks contacted Crawford’s camp on Friday and are trying to sell him on the situation. Crawford would have to take a significant pay cut to join the Knicks, but sources say he’s open to the idea.

New York is over the cap and has no exception money. They also have few trade assets to offer. If the Hawks were willing to do a sign-and-trade with New York built around Renaldo Balkman’s $1.67 million deal, Bill Walker’s $916,000 deal and Toney Douglas’ $1.145 million deal, the Knicks would be sending out $3.73 million in salaries. The new collective bargaining agreement would allow New York to take back 150 percent plus or minus $100,000, which would give Crawford a starting salary of $5.6 million

Warriors to sign DeAndre Jordan to 4-year, $40 million offer sheet Sunday. No Biedrins amnesty to do it

- David Aldridge on Twitter.

Why would the Clippers not try to resign Jordan? Oh wait obvious question. Man that team needs a real owner.

$10 million a year for DeAndre Jordan.

I think this is a 50-50 call for the Clippers. It's right on the edge of both being uncomfortable and yet just about acceptable at the same time. Tough decision. Taking a pretty big risk either way.

I think they'll match it and try to use Kaman's expiring and other players as trade bait to acquire a star.

[Who]

Evans is at the top of the list, but Blazers would need full MLE to get it done. Blazers won't have MLE unless they amnesty Brandon Roy

Reggie Evans' asking price according to John Canzano

Evans asking for the full MLE? Yikes.
