Phil Jackson, Knicks mull adding Odom

The New York Knicks have expressed interest in signing veteran free agent Lamar Odom, according to sources close to the situation.

The Knicks, at the behest of new team president Phil Jackson, have been looking into the possibility of signing Odom since the 34-year-old's short stint playing in Spain ended and are weighing whether to go through with adding the Queens native to their roster before the regular season ends.

Among the options the Knicks are considering, sources said, is signing Odom before Wednesday's regular-season finale to a contract that includes a team option for next season.
