Oakley was absent and Werdann was on the job Tuesday as the Bobcats held a camp for veteran free agents that included Jawad Williams, DeMarre Carroll and Garrett Temple. The Bobcats are also scrambling to get rookie draft picks Bismack Biyombo and Kemba Walker in for workouts before the possible lockout begins Friday. New York Post

The point guard options the Nuggets will bring in include Matt Bouldin, Cedric Jackson, Orien Greene and Tyrese Rice with Greene being the best known prospect following a few successful seasons in the D-league that's included numerous stints on an NBA roster. The wings in attendance are pretty impressive, at least as far as free agent options go, as Rodney Carney, J.R. Giddens, DeMarre Carroll, Mickael Gelabale and Alan Anderson will work out. All five players were drafted by an NBA franchise, but Carney has probably had the most illustrious career considering he's been on an NBA roster ever since being a first round pick in the 2006 NBA Draft.

It's unclear if the impending NBA lockout is causing teams to hold more free agent workouts or I'm just hearing about them for the first time this offseason, but the Indiana Pacers became the latest team to invite non-rookies in for a look-see this week. The Pacers are holding a two-day free agent camp that began Monday and will wrap up Tuesday afternoon. Through a source with knowledge of the workout, Ridiculous Upside has a partial list of the invitees. The guard prospects included Bobby Brown, Matt Janning, Javaris Crittenton and Sylven Landesberg. The wings participating include NBA veterans James White (better known as "Flight" because he can do this), DeMarre Carroll and Ime Udoka. As far as big men go, Rob Kurz, Leo Lyons, Chris Daniels and Trent Plaisted were all in attendance on Monday. Ridiculous Upside

The Oklahoma City Thunder have been one of the more proactive NBA teams when it comes to taking advantage of its D-League counterpart in the Tulsa 66ers, but they'll take a look at a host of other free agents Tuesday and Wednesday during a free agent mini-camp according to sources with knowledge of the workout. The Thunder have invited guards Blake Ahearn, Matt Janning, Jerome Dyson and Marquez Haynes; wings Bobby Simmons, James Singleton, DeMarre Carroll and Joe Alexander; and bigs Ryan Reid, Latavious Williams, Arinze Onuaku, Marquis Gilstrap, Tony Gaffney, Rob Kurz and Stephane Lasme. Those names are fluid, however, meaning a few more could be added to the list by the time workouts are actually underway. Ridiculous Upside

To make room for Cousin, the Rockets will waive forward DeMarre Carroll, a forward acquired from the Memphis Grizzlies in the trade that sent Shane Battier to Memphis. Hasheem Thabeet, the other player acquired in that deal, will be recalled from the Rio Grande Valley Vipers with Cousin taking Thabeet’s spot on the Vipers roster. Houston Chronicle

DeMarre Carroll says he didn’t get a detailed explanation from management about why the Grizzlies declined his third-year contract option. He does know this: This season has suddenly turned into a six-month job interview. Carroll will become an unrestricted free agent after this season. “Whenever I step on the court I’m auditioning,” Carroll said. “This shows your professionalism. This is becoming a man. It’s going to be tough. But at the same time, it’s about being a true professional. For a guy like me, I just have to get back to the basics.” Memphis Commercial Appeal

But second-year forward DeMarre Carroll wasn’t as fortunate as he learned that the Griz declined to exercise the third-year option on his rookie contract. Carroll will become an unrestricted free agent next summer. Teams have until Nov. 1 to pick up options or negotiate contract extensions for players still on their rookie deal. To that end, fourth-year guard Mike Conley and the Griz are still discussing a possible contract extension, according to general manager Chris Wallace. Conley would become a restricted free agent next summer if no agreement is reached. Memphis Commercial Appeal
