Andre Miller Hoping for Return to Wizards
Andre Miller, like Drew Gooden and other free agents before him with the Wizards, wants back in. Though unlike Marcin Gortat and Trevor Ariza who are unrestricted and could choose another path, it’ll be up to the team if it wants Miller back.
“The business side always throws you a loop. Hopefully they can figure out how to keep a nice good core group of guys together,” said Miller, who is due to be paid $4.6 million for 2014-15 or be bought out for a fraction of that and become a free agent again. “I’d like to be a part of that. … I feel like I have a lot more years left and I can be in the rotation of a lot of teams in this league.”

Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo recently turned down a two-year, $45.2 million maximum contract extension, the most the franchise could offer him before the end of the regular season, sources told ESPN.
As expected, Oladipo is pursuing a longer-term deal, sources said, something that the collective bargaining agreement doesn’t allow the Rockets to offer him until the offseason.
