Webber on the Market After Sixers Buyout

In the PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, Joe Juliano writes “less than two years after acquiring Chris Webber as a scoring partner for Allen Iverson, the 76ers agreed with him on a buyout of the rest of his contract, president and general manager Billy King said last night. King said the buyout agreement had been sent to the NBA office, which signed off on it late last night. The Sixers are expected to place Webber on waivers this morning, and if he is not claimed within 48 hours, he will become a free agent. The Dallas Mavericks and New Jersey Nets reportedly are very interested in Webber, 33, as are the New York Knicks.”
