LA Lakers are pleased to announce the signing of Marco Belinelli, who has signed a one year, $2.5m contract (using the 'Heat' Exemption.) Belinelli is a great shooter, and averaged just shy of 12ppg for the Hornets.

We are also happy to confirm that 2nd round picks from previous years, Ater Majok & Chinemelu Elonu, will be joining the Lakers.

Majok (C) has been playing for BK Bemaco SPU Nitra in Slovakia for the past season, averaging 11.3 points, 9.3 rebounds & 1.3 blocks per game, and showing good athletic potential.

Elonu (PF) has been playing for Pau-Orthez in France, averaging 10.4 points, 7.9 rebounds.

The New Orleans Hornets would like to announce the signing of 2 players.

Jeremy Evans 2 years, $4m
($2,000,000), ($2,000,000)

The dunk champ will be a great energy player off the bench for us, and gives us the most athletic PF rotation in the league(Favors / Ty Thomas / Evans).

Darius Morris
2 years / $3,067,500, with a 3rd year PO

($1,500,000), ($1,567,500), ($1,638,037)(PO)

needed a backup PG, and we like Morris' size, and that he's a true pass-first PG.

The Charlotte Bobcats are more than happy to announce the signing of:

PF, Kenyon Martin

Year 1 - $4,200,062
Year 2 - $4,389,064 (Player Option)

Blows the rest of my free cap-space but we feel is worth it.

Chicago signs Rashard Lewis using the new midlevel exemption. .

$2,500,000
$2,612,500
= $5,112,500

only 12% of his previous year's salary, but he's made more than enough...

Dallas has signed....

Ersan Illyasova PF

4 years 16 million

Post #132 » by **ATL Boy** » Thu Mar 8, 2012 3:41 am

The Memphis Grizzlies have signed:

Johnny Flynn
2013: 3,500,000
2014: 3,500,000
2015: 3,500,000
2016: 3,500,000
Low risk high reward, Flynn was a lotto pick just a few years ago and is only 23, he'll be great with the young dynamic of my team and has a chance to still be great, and if not I still get a solid backup PG.

Here is how the vet min free for all will work this round

Starting at noon, teams can post 1 vet min that they want to sign. Every 12 hours you can post another signing. After midnight EST on Saturday. (everyone will have a shot to sign 5 by then) You can then post 2 per 12 hours. If you can not post, ask someone to post for you!

so between noon and midnight today you can post 1
between midnight and noon tomorrow you can post another and so on
