Hornets land Hibbert, Sessions

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Charlotte Hornets are adding center Roy Hibbert and point guard Ramon Sessions to their roster.

A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that Hibbert will receive a one-year deal worth $5 million and Sessions will get a two-year, $12.3 million package with a team option for the second season.

Hibbert is expected to back up Cody Zeller, while Sessions fills in for Kemba Walker.

The Associated Press has also learned the following from people familiar with the negotiations:

— The Mavericks and Dirk Nowitzki (noh-VIHT'-skee) have reached agreement on a two-year contract that could get the star forward to 20 seasons in Dallas. The agreement would be worth roughly $20 million per season with a player option in the second year. The 38-year-old Nowitzki has averaged 22 points and 7.9 rebounds during his NBA career since being taken ninth overall in the 1998 draft.

— The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to terms with guard Gerald Henderson on a two-year deal worth $18 million. Henderson averaged 8.7 points in his first season with Portland, after spending six years with Charlotte.

— The San Antonio Spurs have traded Boris Diaw (DEE'-ow) to the Utah Jazz for point guard Olivier Hanlan. Diaw averaged 6.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists last season.

— David West is headed to Golden State on a one-year deal to try to land that elusive championship. West left some $11 million on the table last season when he opted out of his contract with Indiana to try to get a title with the San Antonio Spurs. He averaged a career-low 7.1 points per game.
