Exploring possible alternatives to Ricky Davis, the Heat spoke with agents not only about James Jones, but Kirk Snyder, Roger Mason Jr., Devean George and restricted free agent Ryan Gomes, among others…
Good for recently-traded Griz guard Mike Miller and his chance to play
the rest of his career for the Timberwolves near his home in South

a game, and never lost sight of that fact. He also understood that
community service comes from the heart and isn’t just having your agent
buy a block of tickets to give to the underprivileged.

No problem. Ahearn has his sights on winning a job with the Minnesota
Timberwolves, whose summer league team he will play for starting July
14 in Las Vegas.
