The saga of where Alexander Vezenkov will play in the new season continues to unravel. After all the Greek media announced that Bulgaria’s number 1 athlete would leave the NBA and play again for the Olympiakos team, now our southern neighbor abruptly changed their position. It has been reported in a number of publications that the most valuable player in the Euroleague last year is satisfied with the fact that his new team “Toronto” seriously plans to keep him for the next season, which reduces his chances of returning to his former team in Europe.
Vezenkov is part of “Toronto” and has a contract for another 2 years. If he wants to leave the Canadian team, he must pay 6.6 million euros to the NBA team to become a free agent and be able to move to Olympiakos.
“Given the unique opportunity he would get in the NBA, Alexander Vezenkov is considering staying overseas for another year. The prospect of continuing in the National Basketball Association would give him the opportunity to establish himself in the league,” koolnews.gr also writes and adds:
“Succeeding in the NBA is not an easy task, but Vezenkov has already shown that he has what it takes to do it. Being part of a team like the Raptors, which invests in the development of its players, is an excellent opportunity for him.”
“Staying in the NBA is not only a personal choice, but the decision could be influenced by the advice and expectations of his family and loved ones,” the publication added.
