The Warriors have more than $17 million in expiring contracts and if they make a move it would likely be for a small forward.

Andre Iguodala has been on the radar of the Warriors for a while, according to team sources.

"If Dorell Wright is coming off the bench," one team source said, "we're a really good team. That would solve two problems. It would give us the upgrade in talent, and it would bolster our bench significantly."

Iguodala is signed through the 13-14 season.

The Knicks have surpassed the Lakers as the NBA's most valuable franchise, according to findings from Forbes.

New York is valued at $655 million, while the Lakers are close behind at $643 million.

The Bulls, Celtics and Rockets comprise the remainder of the top-five.

In the wake of LeBron James leaving in free agency, the Cavaliers had a single-year decrease of 26%.

The 76ers have decided to shut down forward Andres Nocioni until his fractured finger heals.

"I think we're going to shut 'Noc' down a little bit," said Doug Collins.

"I think he'd like to shut it down for a little bit and get that [right, shooting] hand under control. There was a play in front of our bench the other day that Noc normally would have eaten alive and I could see him not wanting to put the hand into the pile, and I can understand that. It was amazing that he played with that as he did."

The forward suffered the injury on Jan. 7, but has played through it.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Craig Brackins was reassigned to the Springfield Armor, the 76ers' NBA Development League affiliate, it was announced Saturday.

The assignment marks the 31st time in the 2010-11 season an NBA player has been assigned to an NBA D-League affiliate, and it is the second assignment for Brackins, a rookie out of Iowa State.

Brackins was first assigned on Nov. 30. He averaged 17.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.8 blocks in five games before being recalled. Brackins has appeared in two games this season for Philadelphia, averaging 4.0 points in 10.5 minutes.

The Clippers are open to dealing center Chris Kaman prior to next month's trade deadline, but they may only do so for a clear upgrade at small forward.

Also, Los Angeles wants that player to have a reasonable contract.

Kaman has been sidelined for all but 10 games this season with a badly sprained left ankle.

Potential trade targets like Philadelphia's Andre Iguodala and Charlotte's Gerald Wallace may be ruled out because of their contracts.

Detroit's Tayshaun Prince has an expiring contract.

The Mavericks are still trying to decide whether they need to replace Caron Butler, who was lost to a season-ending knee injury this week.

If Mark Cuban and Donnie Nelson decide they need to add a piece prior to the trade deadline Philadelphia's Andre Iguodala and Charlotte's Stephen Jackson are expected to be options.
