Chris Wallace is considered the leading candidate to become the next general manager of the Sacramento Kings.

If Wallace gets the position, he will want to bring Pete D'Alessandro with him to the Kings' front office.

D'Alessandro is the Denver Nuggets' capologist and was previously with the Golden State Warriors.

The Nuggets have already lost Masai Ujiri to the Toronto Raptors this offseason.

Masai Ujiri has agreed to become the next general manager of the Toronto Raptors.

Ujiri accepted a five-year, $15 million deal to leave the Denver Nuggets for the Raptors.

Ujiri was the 2012-13 NBA Executive of the Year.

Sources say Ujiri's decision to accept the position with the Raptors was made more difficult due to his strong relationship with Josh Kroenke.

Ujiri is the first major hire since Tim Leiweke became CEO of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment.

The Los Angeles Clippers are internally discussing the possibility of pursuing George Karl for their head coaching vacancy, according to sources.

Karl is under contract with the Denver Nuggets with one year remaining. The Nuggets also hold an option that would trigger three additional seasons.

Sources say Karl has been eager to discuss an extension with the Nuggets after winning 57 games this season.

Danilo Gallinari was scheduled for surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament, but that procedure has been delayed two weeks because of a setback in his rehab from a torn meniscus.

Gallinari underwent surgery on his meniscus four weeks ago

Gallinari might not return until later in January or maybe even February.

The Toronto Raptors have made Masai Ujiri a five-year, $15 million offer to be their general manager and it is a virtual certainty that the Denver Nuggets will not match, according to league sources.

Ujiri is expected to make a decision sometime this week.

Ujiri was assistant GM for three years with the Raptors before joining the Nuggets in 2010.

Ujiri's contract expires on June 30.

The 2013 Vegas Summer League will be comprised of 22 teams and run from July 12 to July 22.

Masai Ujiri is expected to be nearing a decision on whether to accept the Toronto Raptors' offer to become their next general manager.

The Raptors have made Ujiri a lucrative offer, but he wants to wait until he meets with the Denver Nuggets before accepting.

Ujiri is expected to meet with Josh Kroenke on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Masai Ujiri has an offer on the table from the Toronto Raptors, but it remains unclear if he is prepared to leave the Denver Nuggets.

Ujiri is evaluating multiple competing opportunities as the Nuggets have made an offer to keep him with the club.

“There has been an offer made, but there’s a little bit of a cycle to go through here,” said a league source.

Ujiri had been earning approximately $500,000 per season, about half of the NBA's average for a general manager.

The Raptors have offered Ujiri a four-year deal worth about $9 million, according to sources.

Masai Ujiri has reportedly inched closer to becoming the Toronto Raptors' new general manager, but Denver Nuggets president Josh Kroenke believes he and Ujiri had reached a new contract prior to the interview process with the Raptors.

"In my mind," Kroenke said, "we had an agreement but it doesn't matter because I would never hold someone back from an opportunity they might be curious about. Especially someone I hold in such high regard as Masai."

After speaking with Ujiri, Kroenke decided it was best for both sides to allow the former Raptors official to interview with his old team.

"I have understood all along the relationships that Masai has in Toronto, and I respect those immensely," Kroenke said in a phone interview. "So when Toronto inquired about him recently, I knew that it was going to be a tough situation for everyone strictly because of the relationships involved."

Masai Ujiri is in serious negotiations with Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment to become the next general manager of the Toronto Raptors.

Ujiri will take the next couple days to fully consider the move, but signs are currently pointing to him taking the position with the Raptors.

The Denver Nuggets do not intend to make an aggressive counter to the Raptors' multi-million dollar offer.

Denver ownership "seems to be moving on," one league source familiar with the talks told Y! Sports.

The Raptors are believed to be offering double or even triple the best deal Ujiri has received from the Nuggets.
