Vasilije Micic stays with the Hornets

I'm staying in Charlotte, it's official. » Vasilije Micic has just cut short speculation surrounding his future in the Major League. There had been talk of interest from the Nuggets, where his compatriot and playing partner this summer at the Olympic Games, Nikola Jokic, plays.

All the speculation that has been made, I don't comment on it until it's concrete. There's probably been some interest, but nothing concrete enough for me to comment on it. “, says the 30-year-old player, interviewed by Sport Klub and taken from BasketNews.

He who is coming off a great Parisian summer on a collective level – bronze medal – and personally (13 points at 46% shooting, including 34% from afar, and 4.5 assists on average) adds: ” I'm happy where I'm wanted, and I believe this season will be more fruitful for me. »

The former Euroleague MVP had a first NBA season in two halves. Very little used with the Thunder, he was transferred in the middle of the season to the Hornets. A team that no longer had anything to play for, with which he was able to express himself more: nearly 11 points and 6 assists on average as a starter most of the time. Will he manage to cohabit with LaMelo Ball next year?

It is recalled that Vasilije Micic will enter the second year of his three-year contract ($7.7 million) (“team option” on the last one), for a total amount of $23.5 million, signed when he arrived. Such emoluments have undoubtedly complicated any transaction, to the Nuggets or elsewhere.
