ESPN's Marc Stein reports the Knicks are among the teams monitoring Delonte West's play in the D-League.
According to Stein, West is scheduled to be in uniform for the Texas Legends on Saturday. West decided to play for the Legends after previously declining the chance to showcase himself in the D-League. This stands as possibly West's last opportunity to earn his way back into the NBA.

Delonte West will report to the Texas Legends of the D-League on Monday, a league source tells Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports.

West had previously declined the chance to rehab his game and imagine in the D-League in hopes of landing an NBA gig. However, NBA offers have been almost non-existent and it appears West will finally attempt to get his career back on track in the D-League.

Danny Ainge says Delonte West is among the list of names the Celtics are considering signing, but the team is hesitant because of West's time away from the game.

The Celts' are in desperate need of some backcourt depth after losing Leandro Barbosa (knee) and Rajon Rondo (knee), but it's doubtful they'll end up turning to West. Jannero Pargo's agent said Thursday that Ainge has been in contact with him about the Celtics signing Pargo, who would be a far better option than the mercurial and temperamental West.

The Celtics are not considering signing free agent PG Delonte West.

The Celtics are looking for a stopgap point guard option like Shelvin Mack to replace Leandro Barbosa (knee) and Rajon Rondo (knee), but they don't want to deal with West. He's been out of the league since last season and recently declined an invite to rehab his game/image in the D-League.

Delonte West has decided not to play in the D-League after his representation advised against the idea, a source told NBA.com

Interesting, as West is represented by Dan Fegan. The same source told NBA.com that teams have been reluctant to bring in West (which we already knew), and West backing out of his D-League deal isn't going to help rebuild his stock around the league. West is reportedly in the process of changing agents, so it's possible he could still eventually land in the D-League.

Owner Mark Cuban confirmed Delonte West will not be returning to the Mavs.

"Not gonna happen," said Cuban. West signed with the D-League's Texas Legends, but the Mavs don't want to deal with the unbalanced drama that comes with the veteran. West will be trying to put something good on tape for the other 29 teams in the league.

Delonte West has signed in the D-League for the Texas Legends.

West will attempt to resurrect his NBA career by using the D-League as a springboard. Previously, the Grizzlies were rumored to be interested in signing him to a 10-day contract.
Jan 25 - 1:14 PM

Delonte West has filed paperwork to enter the D-League player pool.

He's still reportedly in talks with Memphis and the deadline is expected to be on Friday, but chances are the Grizzlies won't sign him with this news. The Mavericks' affiliate, the Texas Legends, own the first priority to bring him on their D-League roster.
Jan 23 - 8:05 PM

The Grizzlies will reportedly sign free agents Delonte West, Bill Walker and Sasha Vujacic to free-agent contracts.

The Grizzlies just sent out three bench players in a trade with Cleveland on Tuesday morning, so this isn't a huge surprise. What is surprising is the choice of players coming in. West famously ended his tenure in Dallas on a rocky note, while Walker hasn't played in the league all season and Vujacic has been playing abroad.

The Lakers are unlikely to add a point guard to the roster until at least December 15.

Los Angeles wants to see what options could be on the open market, and even with Steve Nash (leg) on the mend, the Lakers may want to bring in someone who can play ahead of Chris Duhon and Darius Morris. Delonte West's name has been thrown around, with other guys like Eddie House and Jannero Pargo in the mix as well.

The Lakers are reportedly looking at the possibility of signing guard Delonte West, who was waived by the Mavericks just before the season.

The Lakers are desperate for point guard help until Steve Nash and Steve Blake are healthy, and if they don't sign West, you have to think a guy like Jonny Flynn (or someone else) might be a possibility. Stein adds that West is the preferred option, which makes sense given what's available. They're 9-13 and although it's early, are already in danger of missing the playoffs.

The Mavericks have officially waived Delonte West, trimming their roster to 15 players.

West's history of behavioral issues caught up with him again in Dallas, and this is a disappointing end to what could have been a mutually-beneficial fit with the Mavericks. It remains to be seen whether any team is willing to gamble on him this season.

Delonte West will not return to the Mavericks, according to the Dallas Morning News.

Reports had indicated that Mark Cuban was going to decide West's ultimate fate after it had appeared a decision was made, but Dallas basketball executives have reportedly convinced Cuban that it's not worth trying to rekindle a damaged relationship. A move is expected to be made on Monday.

Delonte West has not been released by the Mavericks and there is a chance he could return to the team.

Mark Cuban will decide West's fate and says no decision has been made, and even left the door open for West to return. With the uncertainty surrounding West, Roddy Beaubois looks like a better fantasy option in deep leagues.

Delonte West will not return to the Mavericks, a source tells ESPN Dallas.

We heard on Thursday that the Mavs put in a successful waiver claim for Eddy Curry, and the Mavs will either waive or trade West as soon as possible. The club is "in the process of negotiating terms of West's departure" with his agent, and the source told ESPN Dallas that the suspensions "stemmed from frequent behavior missteps by West." Roddy Beaubois is locked in as Darren Collison's backup.
