Moe Harkless is receiving interest from the Detroit Pistons, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks.

Harkless is a restricted free agent, which gives the Portland Trail Blazers the right to match.

The Blazers acquired Harkless from the Orlando Magic last offseason and he has value as a combo forward.

The Washington Wizards have interest in Al Horford, Ryan Anderson and Nicolas Batum in free agency.

All three players fit with their plans of playing faster and smaller with more perimeter shooting.

The Wizards had been planning on pursuing Kevin Durant but they are out of contention to sign him.

After reaching the second round of the playoffs a season ago, the Wizards were in the lottery and parted ways with Randy Wittman.

The Atlanta Hawks will compete to re-sign Al Horford with the Los Angeles Lakers, Houston Rockets, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, Washington Wizards, Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets.

Horford is a free agent for the first time in his career.

The Hawks can offer Horford a fifth season and more lucrative raises than any rival team. Atlanta's offseason goal appear to be to re-sign Horford and Kent Bazemore.

Horford has been an All-Star in each of the past two seasons.

The Washington Wizards will pursue Darrell Arthur in free agency.

Arthur is a versatile big that has improved his perimeter shooting, making him a natural fit for the Wizards.

Arthur was scheduled to make $2.9 million with the Denver Nuggets but opted out with the salary cap rising to $94 million this summer.

The Washington Wizards believe it is unlikely they will sign Kevin Durant in free agency.

The Wizards have been setting up for a pursuit of Durant in the 2016 offseason for several years. Durant grew up in the Washington area and the hope was he would be intrigued by a homecoming.

"It's not like LeBron and Cleveland," a source told McHenry.

Washington hired Scott Brooks as head coach, who worked with Durant for several seasons with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Wizards must contend this offseason with the restricted free agency of Bradley Beal.

Represenatives of Kevin Durant at Roc Nation are working to solidify invitations with the Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs and the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Durant is expected to take the meetings in New York but teams are still awaiting a decision on the final location.

The Thunder remain the frontrunners to re-sign Durant on a one-plus-one contract, according to sources.

But sources say the Warriors, more than than any other rival team, have Durant's attention.

The Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers, Houston Rockets and Washington Wizards could still capture meetings with Durant but are currently outside the process.

Durant will leave for a publicity tour in the Far East on July 9th and a decision is expected before he departs.

The Washington Wizards are prepared to make a major offer to Joakim Noah in free agency.

Washington will offer Noah a full maximum contract, according to the report.

Noah is coming off shoulder surgery that ended his season in January.

Noah is expected to leave the Chicago Bulls this offseason and they traded for Robin Lopez previously this week. A source said Noah has no intentions of re-signing with the Bulls and is ready to move on this offseason.

The New York Knicks, Minnesota Timberwolves and Milwaukee Bucks are also preparing major offers to Noah.

“If teams are convinced Noah is healthy, he will get a max deal, and Washington is panicking because Nene is done and they didn’t make the playoffs last season,’’ said one GM. “They’ll overpay for Noah — they always do.’’

Scott Brooks is targeting Tony Brown, Chad Iske and Sidney Lowe for his bench with the Washington Wizards.

Brooks was hired this offseason by the Wizards after one season out of the game following his dismissal by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Wizards fired Randy Wittman at the end of the season.

The Washington Wizards have been planning to pursue Kevin Durant for several seasons but they missed out on the playoffs and took a step backwards in 15-16.

The Wizards had been considered a potential destination for Durant as his hometown and with their core of Wall and Bradley Beal.

Wall and Durant have formed a good friendship over the years and he's been outspoken about wanting to play with him.

"If he comes, he comes, if not, got to make other plans," Wall said. "But that’s something I haven’t talked to him about. I’m not willing to right now. He just came off a tough series. I’m trying to give him a couple of weeks, a month off, to think about what he wants to do."

The Wizards also hired Scott Brooks as head coach, who worked with Durant for several seasons with the Thunder.
