Court benches Haywood case in Seattle ownership dispute
Sam Schulman of the Seattle Supersonics calls the ruling partial and favorable, as he awaits a potential Monday decision from U.S. District Judge Warren Ferguson on whether the four year clause applies to Spencer Haywood. Haywood, acquired Dec. 30 from the Denver Rockets, did not play Wednesday night and may miss the rest of the season. A federal panel dissolved an injunction, allowing NBA teams to interfere with Haywood while he played for Seattle. Kennedy, the NBA commissioner, says Haywood playing is unauthorized and may violate NBA constitution and by laws. Schulman says the team will follow the court as is and not jeopardize their position.
