<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">According to an NBA source, Paxson and Bulls coach Scott Skiles contacted Grant shortly after the power forward was waived by the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. Grant, 33, is coming off the worst season of his 11-year NBA career -- he averaged 3.8 points and 3.7 rebounds while missing 13 games because of tendinitis in both knees -- but is exactly the kind of veteran big man the Bulls are looking to add. Of course, the Bulls aren't the only team interested in Grant. ''We've heard from just about everybody in the league,'' Mark Bartelstein, Grant's agent, said on Friday. ''It's going to be a tough call for Brian.'' How much money the Bulls will have to spend on Grant depends on if they match the offer sheet guard Chris Duhon signed with the Toronto Raptors because his salary is tied to the team's $5 million mid-level exception.</div> <div align="center">Source</div>
