CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -Raymond Felton’s agent went to Las Vegas confident he was close to hammering out a long-term deal with the Charlotte Bobcats.
Kevin Bradbury left the meeting with Charlotte general manager Rod Higgins disappointed and far apart in negotiations.
While Bradbury declined to discuss numbers, he indicated there was a surprisingly hefty difference in the deals he and Higgins proposed for the restricted free agent point guard.
Bradbury said both sides remain interested in a lengthy contract.
Felton, the Bobcats’ first-round pick in 2005, has maintained he wants to stay in Charlotte. After averaging 14.2 points and 6.7 assists last season and winning over coach Larry Brown, the Bobcats have made re-signing him a top offseason priority.
