The Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers have interest in signing Jimmer Fredette.
The Memphis Grizzlies were interest in Fredette, but he preferred other options.
Fredette has been waived by the Sacramento Kings, as they were unable to complete a trade involving him at the deadline.
The Bulls are approximately $600,000 below the tax threshold and the team believes it can sign a player to a prorated deal and avoid going down as a tax team.
David Aldridge of NBA.com reports that Fredette is "strongly leaning" toward signing with the Bulls.
The Sacramento Kings recently worked out Royce White and will likely sign him to a 10-day deal.
White was drafted 16th overall by the Houston Rockets, but he struggled to adjust to life in the NBA. White has a well-chronicled anxiety disorder.
White would presumably be available for when the Kings have a game at the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, followed by home games against the Minnesota Timberwolves and New Orleans Pelicans. The Kings then go on a seven-game East Coast road trip.
White could also be assigned to the Kings' D-League affiliate, the Reno Bighorns.

Jason Terry will not report to the Sacramento Kings this season and will rehabilitate a knee injury in Dallas to prepare for next season.
Michael Malone stated Terry's status with the Kings on a local radio appearance.
Terry had knee surgery in the offseason and Malone said the veteran guard has not felt fully healthy this season. Terry was acquired in a three-player trade with the Brooklyn Nets.
The Kings have indicated they do not plan to buy out Terry's contract and the team plans to give more guard playing time to Ray McCallum and Ben McLemore.
The Miami Heat have been attempting to trade Roger Mason to create an open roster spot and have found an agreement with the Sacramento Kings, according to Ken Berger of CBS Sports.

The Kings are now owned by a former co-owner of the Warriors in Vivek Ranadive, while Chris Mullin and Pete D'Alessandro are also former members of that front office.
