NEW YORK -- The New York Knicks are preparing to buy out the contracts of veterans Metta World Peace and Beno Udrih. Cheap Tampa Bay Lightning Jerseys . Neither player was available Saturday for the Knicks 107-98 loss in Atlanta. "Were going in a different direction and weve got to figure out another spot or two for our ballclub," coach Mike Woodson said before the game. World Peace wrote on his Twitter account earlier Saturday that his agent was working on a buyout and thanked fans and the city. Neither veteran has earned a place in Woodsons rotation in his first season in New York. Udrih has appeared in just 31 games, while World Peace, who had a procedure on his knee in January, has played in just 29. "I cant say anything went wrong," Woodson said. "Again, they werent in the rotations. Im not going to linger on it. I mean, were buying them out. As a coach, guys work for me, I wish them nothing but the best as they move on and were going to move on. So thats about the extent of it." Players have to be waived by March 1 if they hope to sign with another team and be eligible for the playoffs. World Peace is a New York native who played at St. Johns, and had long hoped for a homecoming. It didnt turn out to be a happy one with the Knicks, as his 7 minutes of playing time Friday in a double-overtime loss at Orlando was only the sixth game hed gotten into in 2014. All-Star Carmelo Anthony said he was surprised because World Peace seemed to be in good spirits a day earlier. "He was happy, He played," Anthony said. "On the bench, in the locker room, he was a different Metta. Maybe because he had the chance to get out there and play a little bit. But I wake up this morning and hear that he wanted a buyout, it took me by surprise." Udrih hasnt played since Jan. 24. There was speculation the point guard would be traded before Thursdays trade deadline. "Its sad to see them go. But look, this is the business of basketball, man," Anthony said. "For whatever reason, I dont know whats the reason that they wanted to get bought out. But it happened and weve got to move on from there." Adidas Superstar 2 Damen .

RENTON, Wash. -- Ryan Longwells mindset was that he would be running a marathon this weekend. Instead, hell be back in the NFL playoffs, kicking for the Seattle Seahawks. "To be dead-honest with you, my wife is probably the happiest person that I got called in to work," Longwell said Wednesday.

Longwell and defensive end Patrick Chukwurah were officially signed by the Seahawks on Wednesday.

Seattle coach Pete Carroll said Longwell beat out three other kickers during a tryout on Tuesday. "When you look at Ryans background, the great experience hes had, the time hes had in playoff situations and all of that, to make this transition for a younger guy may be more of an issue, and I think he can handle it," Carroll said.

In his final year with the Vikings, 2011, Longwell made 22 of 28 attempts, but was only 6 of 10 from 40-49 yards.

"Hopefully for the team, its a blowout or something. But I think thats something I do well: handle the situation. Im here to help these guys win. Theyve had an incredible season, incredible talent and theyre on a really, really impressive run and you just want to keep it going." Chukwurah has not played in an NFL game since 2007 with Tampa Bay. He spent the 2009 and 2010 seasons in the UFL with the Florida Tuskers, where he led the league in sacks. He was a fifth-round pick by Denver in 2001 and played with the Broncos and Buccaneers. Carroll said his relationship with Seattle defensive coaches Todd Wash and Gus Bradley, plus Chukwurahs ability to play on special teams. made him the best option despite spending the last five seasons out of the NFL. "I came here with the mindset that if this was going to be my last shot, to give it all that Ive got," Chukwurah said. "I was really set on just moving on and starting the next chapter so this is just a blessing." ' ' '
