Amnesty on Jose Calderon. Great game manager, but makes too much and too old for our core. Plus has defensive issues.

The Spurs decided to use the amnesty on Richard Jefferson. He is a pretty decent player, but overpaid.

Houston will amnesty Hasheem Thabeet. We don't thank him for his (non)services... in fact we notified his busted a$$ that he is off the team via text message. :) Kwaheri, biotch.

Washington Wizzards exercise their amnesty option on Rashard Lewis and waive all rights - and cap holds - on their Unrestricted Free Agents as noted on Roster Post (assuming it affects FA Cap space and 2011 trade rules).

Kings amnesty Salmons, great role player, not worth the $$$ money though. Kings also extend the QO on Marcus Thornton and extend Dalemberts rights
