January 10th To Decide Fate Of Many Players

January 10 is looming to be an important day for many players around the NBA.  It is the day players with non-guaranteed contracts learn if their contracts become guaranteed.

"I've got enough things to think about," Sonics guard Mike Wilks said. "It's in the back of my mind, though."

General manager Rick Sund and coach Bob Hill will meet Thursday to decide the futures of Wilks and rookies Desmon Farmer and Andreas Glyniadakis.

Wilks, averaging 2.1 points in 14 games, seems safe because Hill likes having three point guards.

"Mike Wilks has done a really good job for us," Hill said. "I'm sure everybody would agree that he's done a really good job."
