After spending one year away from basketball, Rasheed Wallace is determined to resume his NBA career. The 37-year-old wants to come out of retirement and sign with a contender before the end of the season, according to multiple sources close to the situation.Wallace last played for the Boston Celtics during the 2009-10 season, when he averaged 9.0 points and 4.1 rebounds over the course of 79 games. He chose to retire after the season, even though he had two years remaining on his contract with the Celtics.Now, Wallace wants to make a comeback. He spent a large part of the offseason working out in Boston and believes he can still contribute to a team.In recent weeks, he has been weighing his options and talking with a number of teams.During the All-Star break, rumors started circulating that Wallace was on the verge of signing with the Los Angeles Lakers. However, the two sides didn’t agree to a deal and, while the Lakers still have an open roster spot, no signing appears to be imminent.The Miami Heat have expressed significant interest in Wallace and recently worked him out. Miami wants to add a big man to their roster and they view Wallace as a low-risk, high-reward signing. If the Heat aren’t able to trade for a big before the deadline or sign a bought-out center, they could decide to sign Wallace for the remainder of the season.
If JO is definitely out for the year, I'd give it a go. I don't have high hopes, but if he's miraculously in no worse shape than he was last time he was here (unlikely), he could help.
Only if he agrees to daily drug testing and to not shoot any threes ever.If he can't agree to that then I'd rather have an NBDL all star
