Garrett Temple will become the first Charlotte Bobcat to commit to playing overseas next season, in the wake of the lockout. Temple's agent, John Hamilton, told the Observer today that Temple is signing with Casale, a team in Northern Italy. It's a one-year deal with no out, should the lockout expire. Temple is taking this option in part due to the lockout, but primarily for the chance at steady playing time. Charlotte Observer

"We were not actually pursuing overseas, because we felt he had such a good situation in Charlotte,'' Hamilton said. "But this will let him really focus on what he needs to do to be a rotation play, and that's play steady point guard. "Obviously the lockout was another element'' in the decision. "We would not be doing it otherwise. But this was the right opportunity, given the lockout.'' Charlotte Observer

Based on conversations following Charlotte Bobcats practice Tuesday, it sounds like the team will sign Garrett Temple to another 10-day contract and backup center Joel Przybilla isn’t close to being ready to play, due to soreness in his right knee. Temple’s original 10-day expires tomorrow. Coach Paul Silas says he’s been happy with Temple’s performance in practice, so giving him a second 10-day is in the works. After that second 10-day, the Bobcats would have to decide whether to sign him for the rest of the season or drop him. Charlotte Observer

Popovich did not deny a report on YahooSports that he would meet soon with swing man Corey Brewer, available after being bought out of his contract with the Knicks, but did not elaborate. “I’m just going to say there are six or seven names out there that R.C. and the boys have put in front of us that we’ve been discussing for the last couple of days. “We may do something. It’s more likely that we might add somebody now than the likelihood of us having traded somebody at the trade deadline.” One name Popovich confirmed intrigued the Spurs: Garrett Temple, the combo guard who was with the Spurs for the final weeks of the 2009-10 season and went through most of training camp before being waived.
