If you're his agent, you want to get him the biggest possible deal now, because there are no guarantees he will ever be a full time starter or won't suffer a career ending injury.

Also no guarantees he doesn't dump his agent for a new one at any time.

The Magic can pay Darko the most based upon needs and cap space of the other teams. The question is not just the starting salary, but will it have maximum raises and how many years will it run.

Has anyone seen lazyberbs? It's not like him to miss a Detroit/Orlando matchup.

Lucic cut his hand in a fight with Michael Komisarek. "I'll be fine," he said. "(X-rays are) negative, but there's so many broken bones in there from before you can't really tell."
