Duckworth Reportedly Agrees to $12-Million Deal
The Portland Trail Blazers have reached a tentative agreement with center Kevin Duckworth on an 8-year contract believed to worth more than $12 million.

If the deal is completed, it apparently would make the 7-foot, 275-pound Duckworth the highest-paid player on the team and one of the highest-paid players in the league.
