<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Numerous sources close to the team said the Kings were prepared to offer Beno Udrih their full midlevel exception (approximately $6 million) in a five-year deal. Former Kings point guard Anthony Johnson and forward Lorenzen Wright also became free agents; the team is not expected to pursue either. "Every team, maybe with a few possible exceptions, has an equal playing field now," Cornstein said by phone Monday afternoon. "With (Udrih) being unrestricted instead of restricted, you would think this would be a fairly quick process, but I've learned not to make assumptions." Asked about the perceived interest level, Cornstein said: "I could speculate and say that there appears to be more of a demand for point guards than there is a supply."</div> Sacramento Bee
A five year deal to a guy who produced for one year. This reminds me of an Adonal Foyle, Troy Hudson, Mark Blount type of thing. This also mean that the Wolves will probably make a trade for him in the next couple of years if he indeed does underachieve.
