The players have done a good job of not showing off the bling this summer. But Larry Hughes didn’t get the memo. The video above is from the veteran guard’s photo shoot with Delux Magazine and he shows off his home and cars. If the players really want to know why so many fans say “just take the deal on the table” they should just watch this video. Nice house, though. NBCSports.com

Larry Hughes wants back in, whenever the NBA lets players back in. Hughes sat out all of last season after he failed to secure the deal that he wanted in free agency two summers ago. “Obviously, I wanted to play,” Hughes said recently. “At the same time I wanted to be stable. I didn’t want to go to a situation where it was a one-year deal, or partial guarantee deal where at any time you could be out of there moving on. I wanted certain things after moving around the past three years, to different teams, I wanted something solid. If I didn’t get that, I wasn’t coming back.” Washington Post

The Wizards initially offered Hughes a six-year, $54-million contract, but Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld raised the bid to $70 million over the same number of years before Hughes decided to sign with Cleveland. Grunfeld would fill the void the by trading Kwame Brown to the Los Angeles Lakers for Caron Butler. The way Hughes sees it, he managed to earn $70 million over six years, and has made the most of his time away from the game since. “I had time to hang with my family, reconnect with my kids. It wasn’t a lost cause at all and I got healthy,” Hughes said. “I was really enjoying the time. When it’s time to get ready to go somewhere you can go. You don’t have to check with a team, look at the schedule, you can just go, living the free life.” Washington Post

Hughes has been doing individual workouts in his hometown of St. Louis and is still hoping for another opportunity to wear an NBA jersey again, but already has a taste of life without the game. “If things aren’t right, how I envision coming back, playing a few more years, I’ve got a head start,” he said. Sitting out a year “really just prepared me for what it will be like when I really am done. When I’m done, I know what to expect.” Washington Post

Free-agent guards Larry Hughes and Ronald "Flip" Murray worked out for the Grizzlies this week as the team considers adding to its 13- man roster. The 31-year-old NBA veterans went through a series of drills but did not compete against each other. Coaches and members of the front office attended the Monday drills. The Griz are only weighing their options and no moves (including potential trades) are imminent, according to general manager Chris Wallace. Memphis Commercial Appeal

Boston Celtics, Free Agency, Larry Hughes 

Although he remains a long shot, the Celtics are reportedly still in the mix for Matt Barnes after a sign-and-trade with Toronto and Orlando fell through. Boston has also expressed interest in Rasual Butler, Larry Hughes and Antoine Wright, in addition to looking into a number of potential trade options involving Rasheed Wallace who is expected to retire prior to the start of the 2010-2011 season.

Matt Barnes, Larry Hughes, Antoine Wright and Rasual Butler are all players that Boston has had interest in for most of the free agency period, although Barnes is expected to sign with either Toronto or Cleveland while the others are probably in line to make more than what the C's are in position to offer. With the addition of Jermaine O'Neal, Boston now has five big men under contract - Kevin Garnett, Glen Davis, Kendrick Perkins, O'Neal and rookie Simih Erden. CSNNE.com
