<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Seattle SuperSonics issued a qualifying offer to forward Chris Wilcox Friday, allowing the team to match any offer the athletic forward receives this summer in free agency. Wilcox is expected to receive a lot of attention from rival teams after a strong showing in his half a season as a Sonic. According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, a team that could emerge as the Sonics' primary competition is the Memphis Grizzlies . The Sonics have to decide whether they will pay Wilcox's expected asking price of $8 million to $10 million per season. The 6-foot-10 forward doesn't turn 24 until September and could be one of the team's cornerstones if he re-signs</div> Source
