Bulls, Dunleavy Agree To Deal
Shooters are hard to come by for some teams, which has led to several teams chasing a few excellent free agent marksmen.
One of those shooters is off the market.
According to ESPN’s Marc Stein, former Milwaukee Bucks forward Mike Dunleavy, Jr. has reached an agreement with the Chicago Bulls. Stein, citing sources with knowledge of the deal, says the contract will be worth $6 million over two years.
In 25.9 minutes per game last season, Dunleavy averaged 10.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game while shooting 42.8% from beyond the arc.
Blatche Stays With The Nets
After making a blockbuster trade to score Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, the Brooklyn Nets are attempting to fill out their bench. They’re starting that process by bringing back one of their own.
According to Peter Vecsey, big man Andray Blatche has cancelled his other meetings and will re-sign with the Nets. Howard Beck of the New York Tims says the deal is a one-year deal worth $1.4 million.
Blatche averaged 10.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 0.7 blocks per game for the Nets last season. He shot 51.2% from the field.
