Posted by Jeff Sack under Main
The Associated Press reported Sunday that Washington Wizards coach Eddie Jordan is pretty sure he will have all his players back next season despite two?key players becoming free agents. Both Gilbert Arenas and Antawn Jamison become unrestricted free agents at the end of the season, but Jordan told reporters he has been assured by Wizards General Manager Ernie Grunfeld, and Team Owner Abe Pollin that re-signing the pair is a priority for the organization. Arenas told reporters during the regular season that he was willing to take less money to keep Jamison with the team. Washington lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the NBA Playoffs for the third year in a row. For the second year in a row injuries, played a part in their losing, Arenas was lost for the season midway through the series after experiencing difficulties with a surgically repaired?knee. ?Jordan said wistfully to reporters “Maybe one day we’ll have everybody for a long stretch of time.”
