The Washington Times, quoting unnamed league sources, reports the Washington Wizards have show interest in free agents Rasho Nesterovic, Channing Frye(notes), Jason Collins(notes) and Jamaal Magloire(notes).

Nesterovic is an 11-year veteran, who last season earned $8.4 million while averaging 6.8 points and 3.4 rebounds in 17.3 minutes a game with the Indiana Pacers. He's a solid low-post defender and average rebounder, but is a smart veteran-type player the Wizards could count on for five to 10 minutes a game.

Frye, a 6-foot-11 fourth-year power forward, no longer is in the Portland Trail Blazers' plans. Last season, he earned $3.16 million and averaged just 4.2 points and 2.2 rebounds in 11.8 minutes a game. It's believed that the Wizards would rather land a center, but Frye could come at a pricetag that would be in Washington's wheelhouse.

Collins' eight-year career has largely been a disappointment, but at 7-foot, 255 pounds, he definitely has the big body that could spell Brendan Haywood(notes) and JaVale McGee(notes) for a few minutes. For his career, Collins — who earned $6.2 million last season — has averaged 4.2 points and 4.3 rebounds in 23.4 minutes of play. Last season, he mustered 1.8 points and 2.3 rebounds in 31 games for Minnesota.

Magloire is a nine-year veteran, who last season earned just under $800,000 from Miami. He appeared in 55 games for the Heat during the 2008-09 campaign, averaging 2.9 points and 4.0 rebounds in 12.9 minutes Magloire's problem for much of his career has been health. But if the Wizards are looking for a 5- to 10-minute player to give a foul, he's a low-cost/low-risk option.
