Alex Kennedy: J.J. Redick and Chris Duhon watched the end of the Duke game in the Magic locker room. Teammates let them hear it when the Blue Devils lost. Twitter

Of course, once the Nets re-sign Kris Humphries for one year at roughly $7 million — decision time is down to the short strokes — the Magic can’t dump as much toxic waste in New Jersey; Turkoglu is owed $23 million, including $1 million in year three of the $12 million on the books. Meaning, the remainder of Chris Duhon’s three-year obligation ($10.75 million) probably would be substituted. New York Post

As part of such a trade, which could be expanded to include a fourth team, sources say Orlando would also shed the long-term contracts of Hedo Turkoglu and Chris Duhon -- both absorbed by New Jersey -- while also potentially receiving future draft considerations. ESPN.com

Chris Duhon hadn't heard any feedback from his teammates about the NBA's tentative labor deal as of Sunday afternoon. But the Orlando Magic's representative to the National Basketball Players Association expects the league's players to ratify the agreement when it comes up for a vote. "It's a deal that satisfies both sides," Duhon said. "Obviously, the owners wanted more than they were able to negotiate, and obviously we wanted more. But this is something that we'll both be satisfied with and will get us to be able to go out and work and start a new season." Orlando Sentinel

The star-studded guest list included other current NFL and NBA players, the sources say: Branden Albert of the Kansas City Chiefs; John Wall of the Washington Wizards; Kemba Walker of the Charlotte Bobcats; Carlos Boozer of the Chicago Bulls; Russell Westbrook of the Oklahoma City Thunder; and former New York Knick Chris Duhon, who now plays for the Orlando Magic.

Josh Robbins: Got a clarification from @Chris Duhon. When he sent the tweet, a majority of #Magic players wanted the deal but after the tweet, he got calls from 3 #Magic teammates who didn't want the deal. That meant majority didn't want deal. Twitter

Sean Deveney: I am told @Chris Duhon might not personally support the NBA's offer but that he talked to players and his team would. That's his job. Twitter

good job Chris. This deal isn't that bad. Can't let personal feelings get in the way at this late stage. I applaud you / Chris Duhon: this deal sucks. Twitter

If the players reject the current offer, Stern said owners would take the offer off the table and replace it with a revised proposal that would drop the players’ share of basketball-related income to 47 percent. Chris Duhon, the Magic’s player representative, told the Sentinel early Friday morning that Stern’s warning could be counterproductive. “I think it [the current offer] is better than before, but more negotiations need to be done,” Duhon said. “This ultimatum is just going to make most players angry and go the distance.” Orlando Sentinel

Samples said the D12 Foundation also has received commitments from Gilbert Arenas, Trevor Ariza, Carlos Arroyo, Matt Barnes, Brandon Bass, Earl Clark, Drew Gooden, Rashard Lewis, Mike Miller, Jameer Nelson, Jason Richardson and DeShawn Stevenson. Those commitments are in addition to Ryan Anderson, Chris Duhon, Quentin Richardson and Daniel Orton, who have told the Orlando Sentinel directly or through their agents that they expect to play.

“You hear reports, you read a couple of articles and you see things—agents getting involved and things like that—but we’re able to put all those discussions into the meeting today and, coming out of that, our main focus and our main leverage is us being unified,” Magic guard Chris Duhon told Sporting News from Las Vegas. “Leaving that meeting, that is how we felt. No matter what the situation may take, if it takes a year, if it takes two years, we have all guys willing to make that sacrifice.” Sporting News

Anderson spent the next 45 minutes completing a grueling workout that included almost 600 stomach crunches, countless punches and some weightlifting. But he isn't the only Magic player throwing jabs, hooks and uppercuts this offseason. Encouraged by team officials, Gilbert Arenas, Brandon Bass, Earl Clark and Chris Duhon have incorporated boxing into their training regimens. "I thought it was kind of weird that they were sending me in here to box at first, but I love it," said Anderson, who has been boxing since he was traded to the Magic in June 2009. "It's just a great workout, and I see now why we keep coming back here and bringing guys here." Orlando Sentinel

The goal of these sessions isn't to become better fighters: No one is punching the Magic players, and they're not punching anyone unless they're aiming jabs, hooks and uppercuts into the pads Drespling often wears on his hands or over his ribs and stomach. Magic strength and conditioning coach Joe Rogowski endorses the boxing workouts because they improve the players' stamina, balance and mental toughness. The boxing also breaks up the monotony of players' usual training routines of shooting baskets and weightlifting at Amway Center and running on the Jones High School track. "It gets boring doing the conditioning on the court, so this provides more one arrow in the quiver," Rogowski said. "I just like to get them out of the gym once in a while. It's a great workout. It's different. The guys look at it as a challenge." Orlando Sentinel

Josh Robbins: Chris Duhon is the #Magic player rep. Asked on a scale of 1 to 10 on the chances of a lockout, he responded: 8. Twitter

Duhon still has strong ties to the New Orleans area. His foundation has raised about $650,000 to help with Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts. Duhon has played in New Orleans before during his NBA career, of course, but Wednesday night's game still gave him a thrill. He was still trying to acquire some tickets about two hours before tipoff.

Smith said that he hasn't received any trade requests from Richardson, Duhon or Williams. "It's actually been the other way around," Smith said. "They've come to me and asked not to be traded." Orlando Sentinel

Sources close to the situation say the team has had conversations with Orlando about Chris Duhon, but his contract and the Magic's demands for Ronny Turiaf in return have killed those talks. HoopsWorld

With that in mind, don't expect anything to come out of Orlando's offer of Chris Duhon for Ronny Turiaf, as the Magic frantically search for a backup center after giving up one of the best in the league in Marcin Gortat. Duhon ran the pick-and-roll well, but there was little else he did that would inspire giving up Turiaf's size, not to mention $3.5M in cap space for 2011-12. The Magic are more likely to bring back Tony Battie, who is riding the bench in Philadelphia right now. Newsday
