Rufus on Fire, a Charlotte Bobcats community

Some Biyombo updates I had neither seen nor heard, though they're a week or so old: * When it comes to his NBA agent rights, he has fired his former Spanish agent and signed with Bell Management International, who work out of Maryland. Perhaps they will have an easier time of negotiating the NBA waters. * His Spanish team now claims to hold his rights through 2014 with a $3 million buyout on the contract. Previously, those numbers were reported to have been 2012 and $1.4 million. * Biyombo is in a contract dispute with that team and is attempting to get five months of his salary as well as the contract voided. He apparently claims the club didn't pay him on time going as far back as September '010 and also refused to help him get a visa to play in the Nike Hoop Summit. Biyombo's new management has been negotiating with his club in an attempt to reach a settlement as recently as the middle of last week.

An excellent, detailed description of Bismack Biyombo's workout in Charlotte, which, unlike his workout Tuesday in Auburn Hills, was open to the media. The good news: his offense needs work but isn't as bad as advertised. Also, blocks and dunks were enjoyed by all. (Bonus link: DraftExpress still has Detroit taking Biyombo.)

I have no idea who this is but according to Draft Express the Lakers have promised to draft him. Well that's nice.
