Ramon Sessions opts out
Even if you don't amnesty Calderon with all that cap space could get you two people from this list - and still wait on Bayless for another year to see if he stays healthy.
Sessions is a guy who I would be comfortable throwing money at. He can solve your point gaurd issues and give you that shooter to keep defense honest. Still young and has upside.
A great pro who has shown improvement each year.
Keep #8 and move forward with
