Heat, Clippers & 3 Other Teams Pursing Kenyon Martin

Posted on January 28, 2012 by Tony Hoops

The Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Clippers, Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks are pursuing free-agent forward Kenyon Martin, according to league sources.

 

Martin has spoken with executives from each of the clubs and is hoping to make his decision next week.

 

The veteran of 11 NBA seasons will be eligible to sign and begin playing with a team as soon as the Xinjiang Guanghui Flying Tigers complete their season in the Chinese Basketball Association.

 

Martin signed a $2.6 million deal with Xinjiang during the lockout, but left the team in late December in hopes of returning to the NBA.
