If Milos Teodosic decides to leave Europe for the NBA, the Bulls appear to be a possible landing spot, according to Nikos Varlas of Eurohoops. The Bulls are reportedly willing to offer Teodosic a multiyear contract worth more than CSKA Moscow’s reported offer of 12 million euros over three seasons.
After a weekend report claimed CSKA upped its initial offer to Teodosic, a separate report suggested that the Russian team’s offer has not been changed and is considered “final.”
Varlas quotes several NBA general managers who claim that Teodosic is the best player not signed to an NBA squad. The 30-year-old Serbian guard has been a productive player in Europe, averaging exactly 16.1 PPG the last two seasons while averaging 6.5 APG over the last three.
The Nets‘ acquisition of D’Angelo Russell earlier today may have eliminated a notable suitor for Teodosic’s services, as NetsDaily points out. Brooklyn has been mentioned all year as a possible landing spot for the Euroleague star, but with Russell and Jeremy Lin at the point guard spot, it no longer appears to be a position of need for the Nets.
Still, it seems that Teodosic will have no shortage of suitors no matter where he decides to play next season. Various reports have named the Jazz, Kings, Heat, and Nuggets as other NBA clubs that could be in the mix for the point guard’s services.
This is too smart a move for the Bulls inept Front Office…I, for one, would be completely shocked if they signed him.
same
Agree but he is a point guard and they love point guards.
That was Thibs specialty, regardless whatever PG they brought in, all they had to do was sprinkle him with some Thibs dust and BAM…He became a legit NBA PG…I mean every back-up PG they brought in it worked for, except maybe Pargo…but he was truly helpless…
For awhile though, if you were a back-up PG, and you needed your career to be revitalized, all you had to do was come to Chicago, and then instantly the next season you had a new multi-million dollar contract…
Unfortunately, I really do miss those days…At least the Bulls were competitive, even if Thibs was determined to run every single good player they had into the ground after 3 to 4 seasons…Good lord that man certainly knew how to shorten an NBA career real quick!!
