The Brooklyn Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers have been linked to the eight-time All-Star, but nothing has gone beyond speculations.
Hence, it appears that it is a wide-open race for the 31-year-old guard although teams with the budget to spare are likely to go beyond exploratory situations. One franchise that could enter the fray is the Minnesota Timberwolves.
