    After signing Ramon Sessions(notes) to a four-year, $16 million contract a year ago, Minnesota Timberwolves general manager David Kahn is trying to unload the guard to teams able to absorb his salary, league executives told Yahoo! Sports.

    “They’re basically looking for a salary dump,” said an executive with a team who spoke to Minnesota. “That won’t be easy.”

    Kahn’s plan this time?

    Trying to sign point guard Luke Ridnour(notes) to an identical four-year, $16 million contract, league sources said.

    Still, Ridenour has shown little interest with the T’wolves, sources said, and seems willing to wait for a more compelling offer. What’s unclear is how this would affect Minnesota with Jonny Flynn(notes) as the starting point guard and the rights to Spain’s Ricky Rubio(notes), who could come to the NBA after the 2010-11 season.

    Minnesota has also shown serious interest with free-agent point guard Shaun Livingston(notes), sources said.

    RedRowdy, I'm saying, just in case Lowry decides to play elsewhere, we can pick up a guy who plays a lot like Rondo. for about 4 million a year

    Yes, this guy is a good ball player....give them our trade exception for him......

    We need 3 PGs, in case Lowry doesn't come back...

    I don't see the Rockets going after Sessions but Indiana definitely should...

    Brandon Rush and Solomon Jones for Ramon Sessions...

    Kahn wants to build a team comprised entirely of PGs.

    There is a reason nobody gives the guy a chance to play meaningful minutes. Best case scenario - he goes to GSW and you pick him up in fantasy basketball.

    No way Jose. David Andersen is almost as bad as you can get. One tier ahead of Brian Cook.
