Bobcats' head coach/GM Bernie Bickerstaff told the Observer on Thursday he intends to pick up team options on Alan Anderson and Matt Carroll. Most likely, the team will also make qualifying offers to restricted free agents Melvin Ely, Bernard Robinson and Kevin Burleson.
Asked about re-signing Melvin Ely or unrestricted free agents Jake Voskuhl or Jumaine Jones, Bickerstaff said those decisions will hinge partially on who is drafted.
