NBA 2012 Contract Extension Thread (From Rookie Contracts Only)

There's nothing more recent than October 2 on the possibility of the Bobcats giving an extension to Gerald Henderson, meaning it probably won't happen, making him a RFA on the assumption the Bobcats extend a qualifying offer.
 
I couldn't find anything about the Bobcats and Byron Mullens talking about an extension. That's not surprising since he barely played in 2 seasons with OKC and still wasn't great when he got some playing time in Charlotte.
 
The Bucks and Brandon Jennings seem unlikely to agree to an extension as talks aren't progressing.
 
It's doubtful that Omri Casspi and the Cavs will agree to an extension. I"m basing that off the fact that I couldn't find anything about discussions. There have been rumors that the Cavs would buy Casspi out, but nothing about extensions.
 
David Aldridge on Wayne Ellington getting an extension from the Grizzlies: "It would be hard to explain why O.J. Mayo couldn't get an extension, but Ellison, acquired from Minnesota for Dante Cunningham in July, could." When you consider the pending ownership change as well, it seems unlikely.
 
As Marc Stein points out, the Hawks like Jeff Teague, but they'll pass on giving him an extension because they will want to make a run at Chris Paul first.
 
There's no reason to think that James Johnson will get an extension from the Kings. The Kings only acquired him this past July.
 
OK, continuing with the list, Marc Stein calls Darren Collison and Rodrigue Beaubois longshots to get extensions from the Mavs. Why might he think that? In the case of Beaubois injuries and inconsistent play have to be a factor, but more importantly, they want to have a better FA showing in 2013 than 2012. CP3 and D12 will both be FA's.
 
Ty Lawson and the Nuggets are working on an extension, with Marc Stein thinking it will probably happen. The Nuggets have reportedly offered a 4 year $44 million extension.
 
Tyler Hansbrough is unlikely to get an extension from the Pacers. They signed George Hill to a 5-year $40 million contract, re-signed Roy Hibbert to a 4-year, $58 million contract, and will have to pay Paul George a ton of money in the near future. Hansbrough is easily the odd man out.
 
Austin Daye won't get an extension from the Pistons. The Pistons want to use their cap space since they haven't had any since they foolishly signed Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva back in 2009 (I think it was 2009). The fact that he hasn't shown a ton of promise thus far factors into this as well.
