Al Jefferson and the Indiana Pacers have reached a verbal agreement on a three-year, $30 million deal, league sources told ESPNs Marc Stein.Sources told ESPN that Jefferson is poised to sign a contract with no options on July 7, when a league-wide moratorium on signings and trades is lifted.Jefferson spent the past three seasons in Charlotte but joins Brooklyn-bound?Jeremy Lin in leaving the Hornets on the first day of free agency.With a number of free agents on its roster, Charlotte has focused on re-signing Nicolas Batum ?-- which it quickly achieved Friday -- and retaining Marvin Williams.Team president Larry Bird has been trying to mold the Pacers into a faster, sleeker unit under new coach Nate McMillan.Bird also knows the value of having a reliable offensive threat in the post to get buckets when the game inevitably slows down, and thats where Jefferson comes in. In a league that has steadily gotten smaller and more versatile, the 31-year-old Jefferson is a throwback to the crafty, dominant post players of Birds era. And Big Al has Celtics green all over his game.Jefferson started his career with Birds old team before being traded to Minnesota, where he was tutored by Birds former teammate and Celtics Hall of Famer Kevin McHale, one of the best post players to ever play. Jefferson has exhibited some of the same trickery and creativity on the block that McHale made famous for those title-winning Celtics teams, and his unique skill set has helped keep him in demand as he has weathered some significant injuries.Jefferson missed the first 11 games of the 2015-16 season -- five games for a suspension for violating the leagues drug policy and six for a strained groin muscle. He played in two games before knee surgery sidelined him for 23 more.A veteran of 12 NBA seasons, Jefferson averaged 12 points and 6.4 rebounds over 23.3 minutes per game while appearing in 47 contests (18 starts) for the Hornets last season. He earned $13.5 million in the final year of a contract he signed before the 2013 season.He averaged 13.3 points and 6.1 rebounds in 24 minutes per game in Charlottes first-round playoff loss to the Miami Heat.Information from ESPN staff writer Chris Forsberg and The Associated Press was used in this report.

Scott won the Australian PGA last week in his first event in Australia since winning the U.S. Masters in April.

Worcestershire 268 for 6 (Fell 116* ) beat Lancashire 267 for 7 (Croft 78, Abbott 3-56) by four wicketsScorecard Tom Fells first century since his recovery from cancer kept alive Worcestershires chances of a quarter-final place in the Royal London Cup with a four-wicket victory over Lancashire at New Road. Fell made 116 not out, his highest List A score, as Worcestershire successfully chased 268 with 14 balls to spare and in the process killed off their opponents hopes of going through to the knockout stage.Worcestershire now have to win their final group game against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge on Monday and look for favourable results elsewhere.For Fell, it was an emotional milestone in his eighth innings since returning to the side a month ago. Having completed two fifties in that time, he moved up a gear to score his maiden List A hundred in an innings of high quality on a pitch where Lancashire found it difficult to dictate to spinners or the slower-paced seam bowlers.Going in as early as the fourth over, when Daryl Mitchell was caught behind off Saqib Mahmood, Fell was into his stride in a partnership of 58 with Tom Kohler-Cadmore, who got to 30 before he was caught at cover off Tom Smith.Worcestershire had a wobble in six balls from Stephen Parry. Joe Clarke was caught low down at short extra cover for 25 and Brett DOliveira was stumped after charging the left-arm spinner. Ross Whiteley then restored stability with 38 out of 83, and although he was bowled by a quicker ball by Steven Croft, the crowd was ready and waiting for a standing ovation when Fell reached three figures in 104 balls by cutting Parry forr his 14th four.ddddddddddddThe 22-year-old collected one more boundary and could afford to take a back seat as Ben Cox powered Worcestershire towards their target with 31 from 25 balls.In making 267 for 7, Lancashire owed much to their captain, as Croft featured in two significant partnerships during the pace off period. Legspinner DOliveira bowled 10 overs for 27 runs and at the same time medium-pacer Mitchell delivered his first full ration in white-ball competitions this season.The home skipper finished with 1 for 41, his wicket an important one when the dangerous Karl Brown was out for 43, giving wicketkeeper Cox his third catch of the innings.At that stage Lancashire were beginning to repair early damage caused by Kyle Abbotts most effective contribution in Worcestershires overseas position. The powerfully built South African emerged from a sharp opening spell with 2 for 24 from six overs. Smith was first to go, mishitting to mid-off, and Alviro Petersen went for 32, a first victim for Cox.Offspinner George Rhodes accounted for Liam Livingstone with assistance from Cox. This brought in Croft to make 33 out of 64 with Brown before adding 99 in 14 overs with Luke Procter.Croft made 78 from 105 balls, hitting a six and six fours before falling to Ed Barnard. He was brilliantly caught by Whiteley, running in from deep midwicket, but Joe Leach, at short fine leg, hardly had to move to hold Procters mistimed ramp shot on the return of Abbott. The left hander made 47 at almost a run-a-ball. ' ' '
