Billy King says New Jersey Nets unlikely offer Brook Lopez extension deadline

NEWARK, N.J. -- The New Jersey Nets have yet to offer a contract extension to
center Brook Lopez and are unlikely to do so before the Jan. 25 extension
deadline for players drafted in 2008, according to general manager Billy King.
"I'm sure I'll have a conversation with his agent [Arn Tellem]," King told
reporters before Wednesday night's game against the Golden State Warriors.
"But I don't know if we'll do anything with him at this point. I think you
just have to wait. They may throw a number at you that makes sense."
Lopez, who remains out with a fractured foot, is in the last year of his
rookie contract and will make roughly $3.1 million this season. He'll be a
restricted free agent on July 1 and if the Nets extend a one-year, $4.2
million qualifying offer for the 2012-13 season Lopez would then become an
unrestricted free agent in 2013-14.
The 23-year-old Lopez, who was coming off a season in which he averaged a
career-best 20.4 points per game, could have been a candidate for an
extension if he was healthy. However, Lopez fractured his foot in the team's
final preseason game against the New York Knicks and had surgery two days
later Dec. 23. At the time, Lopez was expected to miss six-to-eight weeks.
"The injury has had an impact on it," King said.
Lopez isn't wearing a boot anymore and was doing some standstill shooting
Wednesday.
"That's a positive," said King, who added that Lopez's rehab remains on
schedule.
Before the injury, sources told ESPN.com that Lopez had been the centerpiece
of a blockbuster three-team trade that would have landed Orlando Magic center
Dwight Howard in New Jersey.
