“I was about to go back to Europe because I had no NBA offers. » These words are those of Facundo Campazzo at the beginning of November. The latter was therefore delighted to have finally signed in Dallas and to have found Luka Doncic there.
But a month after this statement, this week the Argentinian was cut by the Texas franchise, which thus made room to bring in Kemba Walker.
Now that he is without a club again, does Campazzo, who has been very discreet in Dallas, still have a chance of staying in the NBA? His agent doesn’t think so.
“The reality is that if he doesn’t play in the NBA, he will play in Europe”assures Claudio Villanueva in remarks reported by EuroHoops. “There are not so many teams that can sign Facundo. He trusts me, too, and we’re going to have to wait. If asked my opinion, I would not be interested in any NBA team. I imagine he will receive a new offer in Europe. »
If the agent speaks of a “new offer”, it is because a first had arrived from Russia a few months ago.
“Russia has closed its doors in my opinion”, continues Villanueva. ” There is no more possibility now. At the start of the season, we had a call but today’s reality, with the war, is really complicated. If the Russian teams return to the Euroleague, we will talk about it. But here it is really complicated. »
And a return to Real Madrid, where Campazzo had evolved with Doncic, is it possible? “We automatically think that Real may be interested but the team is already well armed in terms of outside players”recalls the former Denver agent. “It will be for them to possibly add another element to this position. »
