Brooklyn Nets coach Avery Johnson gave his players the day off Sunday. Some watched football. Others enjoyed a quiet day with their families before the onslaught of the NBA regular season.

Nets center Brook Lopez had something else in mind. He grabbed his brother, loaded up on Doritos and sour gummy worms, and headed to New York's Javits Center to hang out with Boba Fett, Captain America, Catwoman and an oddly bulbous-looking Mr. T, who was posing for photos with a toy machine gun.

For months, Denver Nuggets guard Ty Lawson has voiced confidence that he’ll receive a contract extension that will keep him from hitting free agency at season’s end. Despite the fact that a deal still isn’t done with the cheap wholesale jerseys Oct. 31 deadline looming, Lawson believes something will get worked out.

“I’m still confident,” Lawson said to HOOPSWORLD. “My agent is working with Masai Ujiri and Josh Kroenke so I feel like in the next couple of weeks something will get done. We’ll see.”

According to sources close to the cheap jerseys situation, the Nuggets’ current offer is in the neighborhood of $44 million over four years, which is just south of what it will likely take to get a deal done before free agency. The 2013 free agency class isn’t going to be overflowing with starting-caliber point guards like Lawson. On the open market, he could very easily receive an offer in the $12-13 million range per year.
