The Boston Celtics and several other teams are in the Brent Barry sweepstakes the Boston Globe reported.
The Sonics waived the 13-year veteran combo-guard Thursday after acquiring him the same day in a trade from the Spurs. The 6-foot-7-inch, 210-pounder will become an unrestricted free agent Saturday and is expected to get interest from Boston, San Antonio, Phoenix, Denver, Houston, Golden State, and the Lakers.
The Spurs, however, would have to wait 30 days before they are eligible re-sign Barry. Boston is expected to inquire about Barry. A calf injury, however, is expected to keep Brent Barry sidelined for about another 10 days.
