Like Theo Ratliff, the 30-year-old forward-center was part of the Sebastian Telfair deal, a trade that leaves Portland on the hook for the remaining three years and $36.7 million on LaFrentz's contract. LaFrentz, who missed the first 17 games of the season with a calf injury, hasn't averaged more than 11.1 points a game since the 2001-02 season.
