James PoseyDid you see this Mitch?

The Boston Globe is reporting that James Posey is not going to exercise a $3.2 million option and will officially become an unrestricted free agent, according to Mark Bartelstien, Posey’s agent.

Posey is expected to get a lot of interest from a lot of teams, the Lakers among them, but will also be the Celtics’ top priority.

 New Orleans is the other team rumored to be interested in the defensive and 3-point specialist. Posey is known to follow the money trail, which means Mitch Kupchak needs to clear room on the roster (Lamar Odom? Luke Walton?) if he has any hopes of landing Posey.
