Agent: Hornets withdrew contract offer for Head

Basketball Betting Lines

07/14/2010 -

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -The agent for Luther Head says his client is healthy and the New Orleans Hornets have not offered a reasonable explanation for why they rescinded a two-year contract offer for the veteran guard.

Mark Bartelstein says the Hornets informed him that Head failed their physical. The agent says the manner in which the Hornets rescinded the deal and the timing of the move were ``unsettling.''

Bartelstein says he had a deal on Saturday with former Hornets general manager Jeff Bower, who stepped down on Tuesday.

The agent also says that by failing Head on the physical, the Hornets have unfairly hurt his ability to sign with another club.

The Hornets have not formally acknowledged there was a deal with Head.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. The information contained in the AP News report may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed without the prior written authority of The Associated Press.
