There’s a possibility that Sasha Vujacic might end up in Europe come next season. Hat tip to The Lakers Nation.
First Atlanta’s Josh Childress headed overseas, signing a
lucrative deal from a Greek club. Now Houston’s Carl Landry is
entertaining offers from across the Atlantic.
Lakers’ Sasha Vujacic also has been contacted by several
European clubs, according to a Slovenian newspaper. (Probably a good
move for him considering no NBA clubs have expressed interest in
signing the restricted free agent).
Kobe Bryant said he wouldn’t be surprised if Vujacic takes
the money and runs to Europe (if the rumors are true) considering the
Lakers aren’t offering him more than a qualifying one-year deal worth
$2.6 million.
“It depends on how much money they’re throwing at him,”
Bryant said. “You got rules (NBA’s salary cap), so you’re playing with
an uneven playing field. So if they want to throw a boatload of money
at him.” [OC Register Lakers Blog]
