Timberwolves waive Delonte West
Aug 4, 2010 - 12:00 AM MINNEAPOLIS(AP) -- The Minnesota Timberwolves have waived guard Delonte West.West was acquired from Cleveland with Sebastian Telfair on July 26 in a trade that sent point guard Ramon Sessions and center Ryan Hollins to the Cavaliers.
But West's $4.6 million contract was guaranteed for only $500,000 if he was waived by Wednesday.
West pleaded guilty last month to weapons charges. He was sentenced to eight months of home detention, two years of unsupervised probation, 40 hours of community service and psychological counseling.
Prosecutors said that the sentence would allow West to attend practices and travel to NBA games as his team's schedule requires, but NBA officials are reviewing the case for possible further discipline.
