Yes, he passed his physical, says Rod Thorn and yes, he has agreed to a one- year guaranteed deal. Other players the Nets are pursuing with the money saved by not signing Robert Traylor include: Darius Songaila, Andrew DeClercq, Calvin Booth and Obinna Ekezie as well as Casey Jacobsen, Wesley Person, Dermarr Johnson, Richie Frahm, Jason Kapono, and possibly Lamond Murray if he is released. Johnson, with two years experience, would qualify for a vets' minimum of $719,000.
