HEDO TURKOGLU TO THE BLAZERS?

Hedo Turkoglu has reached an agreement in principle to join the Portland Trail Blazers, according to sources. Although a verbal commitment may be announced sooner, the terms of the contract cannot be finalized until Wednesday, when the NBA informs teams what the 2009-10 salary cap will be. The Orlando Magic's recent trade for Vince Carter, who has a large salary and plays small forward which is Turkoglu's position made it highly unlikely Turkoglu would be back in Orlando.
