Shaq May Get The House

Shaquille O’Neal, who becomes a free agent on July 1, will reportedly be offered a four-year salary package worth $54.76 million to keep him from jumping from the Orlando Magic to another NBA team.

The Orlando Sentinel, citing unidentified sources, reported the figure.

O’Neal’s financial agent, Leonard Armato, said the reported offer was news to him. “I don’t have a reaction,” he said.

The Vancouver Grizzlies picked up forwards Pete Chilcutt and Tim Breaux and swapped three choices in the NBA draft with the Houston Rockets.
