Cook update

| | Comments (1) |

The Lakers were unable to agree to a contract extension Tuesday with forward Brian Cook, who will become a restricted free agent at season's end. Cook's agent, Mark Bartelstein, said the two sides weren't ``light years apart'' on a deal but weren't going to come to an agreement.

``What made sense for us didn't make sense for them,'' Bartelstein said, ``and what made sense for them didn't make sense for us.''

The Lakers will retain the right to match any offer Cook receives next summer.
