Rasheed Wallace isn't the only guy on the Celtics radar. Seems like Danny Ainge is weighing all options (http://www.azcentral.com/sports/suns/articles/2009/07/01/20090701sunspursuits0702.html), including Grant Hill, Chris Wilcox, and Antonio McDyess:Hill is receiving interest from several teams, including Boston, Denver and New York, because he rejuvenated his career in Phoenix. The Denver Post reported he could command $3 million per year there. Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni probably has major minutes and money waiting for Hill, who said he is leaning toward remaining with Phoenix.Like Hill, McDyess' career had been riddled with injuries. He appeared to have lost pop and hope when he came to Phoenix in 2004. Instead, McDyess found a training approach that clicked and had a run of late-season games that led to a four-year, $23 million contract with Detroit. He was not the only player to get paid after leaving Phoenix with improved numbers. Tim Thomas (four years, $24 million), Steven Hunter (five years, $17 million) and Eddie House ($8.6 million earned in four years after next season) each improved his stock after a signing minimum contract with Phoenix.But the Suns are recruiting as a lottery team, albeit a 46-36 one. They will have a hard time competing with San Antonio, Boston, Cleveland and Atlanta for McDyess. Boston is interested in Wilcox. Denver talked to Frye at midnight Wednesday. Fabricio Oberto, waived by Detroit, could be of interest to the Suns once he clears waivers Tuesday.
