Following the trade deadline, the buyout and free-agent market could get interesting - and very worldly.

Boris Diaw's representatives have been in touch with several playoff-bound teams expressing interest in his potential NBA return, according to ESPN's Tim MacMahon.

The 35-year-old Diaw decamped the Association last fall to return to his native France and play with Paris-Levallois. He has an NBA out in his contract, according to MacMahon.

Diaw had reported interest from the Toronto Raptors and others before returning to Europe. He last played in the NBA for the Utah Jazz in 2016-17, averaging 4.6 points in 17.6 minutes.

While he's no longer a featured scorer and has dealt with weight issues throughout his career, "Bobo" has shown a knack late in his career for playing key spot minutes in a leadership role.
