Sam Cassell, traded by the Timberwolves to the Clippers for Marko Jaric, has refused to take a physical with his new team and is demanding an extension on his contract, which has one year to go. Cassell is asking for a two-year deal.

The Wolves hope this doesn't kill the deal.

A season after his first All-Star selection, Sam Cassell played an injury-filled season in 2004/05, with his stats taking a hit accross the board.
