As we reported a few days ago, the Nets do like Hickson, who is very much available. Portland isn't interested in making the playoffs. Hickson would definitely help the Nets at power forward. With Hickson, they don't need to sign Kenyon Martin. Who wants him, anyway? - Mitch Lawrence New York Daily News

Because the Knicks aren’t sure if Wallace will be available or effective, and Marcus Camby has also been limited with a sprained left plantar fascia, the team has considered signing a free agent big man. Kenyon Martin and Lou Amundson are two players whom the Knicks have discussed internally, according to sources. New York was holding out hope that Wallace would return and be just as productive as he was earlier in the year. Getting Wallace back was their preference since he had been with the team for the whole season, had proven himself as a significant contributor and had emerged as a strong locker room presence. However, if Wallace is ineffective or unable to play many minutes when he comes back, expect New York to sign Martin or Amundson for the remainder of the season to bolster their depleted frontcourt.

But Woodson said yesterday he hasn’t had any conversations with Knicks GM Glen Grunwald about signing a free agent such as Kenyon Martin. Wallace was scheduled to start running this week but that hasn’t yet happened. Woodson originally thought Wallace was returning after the West Coast trip Jan. 1st. "He'll be back, but when, I don't know," Woodson said. "We're gradually trying to get him back where he can run again so he can get back in a uniform. But when, we don't know when yet."

Woodson denied that the Knicks are pursing free agent forward Kenyon Martin, saying “that’s new news to me. That’s (media) speculation.” Yahoo! Sports reported that the Knicks are considering signing Martin to a 10-day contract. In order to add Martin, the Knicks would have to release a player because their roster is already at the maximum of 15. New York Daily News

Now, there aren’t any offers for the 35-year-old Martin to consider. Over the offseason, several teams expressed interest in Martin including the Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, Brooklyn Nets, Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs. However, none of the teams offered a contract so Martin is still at home. HoopsWorld

At first, sources blamed Martin’s unwillingness to sign for the veteran’s minimum as the reason why he wasn’t signed, but even since Martin has backed off of that stance he hasn’t been picked up. Some reports have even indicated that Martin would even be willing to sign a 10-day contract in an effort to prove that he can still bring something to the table for an NBA team. HoopsWorld

A source said the Knicks have made a recent inquiry about the free-agent Martin but nothing is serious until they figure out if Wallace will be able to resume his season next week. Ironically, Wallace’s $1.4 million veteran minimum’s contract is officially guaranteed as the Knicks would have had to waive him by last night. New York Post

A well-known agent is making a bid to bring in Kenyon Martin for the PBA Commissioner's Cup, although there's no word yet on whether a move to the local pro league would interest the NBA star. Player agent Sheryl Reyes said she has started negotiations with the camp of the high-flying Martin, a 12-year NBA veteran who is without a team after a stint with the Los Angeles Clippers last season where he averaged 5.2 points and 4.3 rebounds in 42 games. “I am moving heaven and earth to bring him here. Kenyon is now weighing his options,” said Reyes. Sports Interactive Network Philippines
