GIAMBI HAS UNTIL THURSDAY TO AGREE TO MITCHELL MEETING

Jason Giambi has until Thursday to agree to a meeting with steroids investigator George Mitchell or else face possible discipline from baseball commissioner Bud Selig.

Lawyers from the players’ union and Major League Baseball resumed talks yesterday after a weekend break to set rules for a Giambi-Mitchell meeting.

The deadline is only for an agreement to meet, not for the actual session to take place.

Selig said June 6 that he wanted the meeting to take place within two weeks.

GEORGETOWN’S GREEN WILL STAY IN NBA DRAFT

Georgetown star Jeff Green is heading to the NBA.

The Hoyas junior will keep his name in the NBA draft — he said last month he intended to turn pro, but said his decision wasn’t “set in stone” and kept his options open by not hiring an agent.

Green, a 6-foot-9 forward, led Georgetown in scoring (14.3 points) and averaged 6.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists, helping the Hoyas reach the Final Four for the first time in 22 years.
