Hedo Turkoglu
Trail Blazers general manager Kevin Pritchard called agent Lon Babby about Hedo Turkoglu once free agency opened late Tuesday night.
“Kevin Pritchard and [assistant general manager] Tom Penn called me at the earliest possible moment and expressed enthusiasm for engaging in discussions about Hedo becoming a Trail Blazer,” Babby told the Oregonian.
“We have begun that process.”
Pritchard said that he talked with Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge about contract extensions prior to inquiring about Turkoglu.
