Decision on Sessions looms

Ramon Sessions could be headed to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, if the Milwaukee Bucks do not match a four-year, $16.4 million offer sheet to the restricted free agent. The Bucks are facing a 4 p.m. (Milwaukee time) deadline to make a decision on the 23-year-old Sessions, a two-year pro who played in 79 games and led the team in assists last season. Barring a last-minute deal to clear some salary space, the Bucks are not in position to sign Sessions and remain below the league's luxury tax level of $69.92 million. General manager John Hammond has emphasized throughout the off-season that the franchise will not exceed the tax level.
