By Marc Narducci The 76ers consider fourth-year swingman Andre Iguodala a budding star, and apparently others in high basketball positions agree. A source confirmed yesterday that Iguodala has been invited by U.S. senior national team managing director Jerry Colangelo to join a group of young players to scrimmage the senior national team before it competes in the FIBA Americas Championship. Iguodala accepted the invitation and will be in Las Vegas from Aug. 13 to 21, working out with the national team. The FIBA Americas Championship is scheduled for Aug. 22 to Sept. 2 in Las Vegas, and the U.S. senior national team is set to begin practice Aug. 15. The top two finishers in the 10-team FIBA Americas Championship will earn qualifying spots for the 2008 Olympics. This will give Iguodala a chance to have an early audition for a spot on the 2012 Olympic team. Last season, he averaged 18.2 points, 5.7 assists and 5.7 rebounds for the Sixers. Also, the Sixers confirmed that conversations between team officials and Iguodala's agent, Rob Pelinka, about a contract extension are taking place. Billy King, the 76ers' president and general manager, called Pelinka on July 1, the first day teams were able to begin negotiations with free agents. Iguodala is set to make $2.8 million this season, but he can sign an extension between now and Oct. 31 that would take effect for the 2008-2009 season. If an extension isn't reached, the two sides wouldn't be able to resume negotiations until next July. A player of Iguodala's standing could earn as much as 25 percent of the salary cap in the first year of the extension. A source familiar with the figures being discussed said that a maximum contract would be between $13 million and $14 million the first year. The deal could be for up to five years, with increases of as much as 10.5 percent each year. 一锅多辣可以拿到薪水帽的1/4 第一年13XX万 连着5年 每年增加10.5% --- 翻英文太累 等等翻 --
