As they also did this week with veteran center Mark Blount, the Wolves have given Daniels permission to find a trade that will allow him to play more elsewhere. If the Wolves can’t trade Daniels, 34, for a contract similar to his $6.6 million deal, the two sides already have agreed to a contract buyout.

Jackson spoke with Lakers management about having assistant Kurt Rambis succeed him as head coach. But management was unwilling to make that promise. Rambis took the head coaching job with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
