    A huge offer is on the table from the Perth Wildcats to retain American star Bryce Cotton following this Australian basketball league campaign

    A huge offer is on the table from the Perth Wildcats to retain American star Bryce Cotton following this Australian basketball league campaign


    Cotton - a four-time league MVP - is a free agent at the end of the season.

    In a bid to keep him tied to West Australia, the Wildcats have offered him a huge deal of more than a million dollars a season - equating to more than half of the ANBL salary cab.

    Cotton has been in stunning form this season - averaging nearly 50 points in his last three games including a 59 point effort against the New Zealand Breakers last week.
