Have only seen it here but reports that KG has or is close to signing in Italy.

Interesting what’s that team like?
Looks like they were euro league this year. Sponsored by a coffee company. Players on tbe roster whose names I recognized were Belinelli and Semi Ojeleye (famous for having his mom get yelled at by Coach K)
I think they have a two-year wildcard to the EuroLeague, so Kyle should get to play in it next season. Coached currently by a premier Euro coach in Sergio Scariolo, the Spain national team coach.
Makes
Sense since Kyle was torching some of the Spanish National team
Dudes in the semifinals…. That coach took notice and grabbed him quicklike… maybe he goes Tobey route and plays with another country
New reports for KG indicate that he is about to sign with Valencia, and earlier reports linking him to Virtus in Italy were premature. Joventut, his club last season, has included him on a list of players for which the club has the right of first refusal in ACB, sort of a restricted free agent I gather, meaning they can match any contract.
Make that money KG!
Seemingly official, KG to Valencia after the club negotiates for his rights. Essentially a restricted free agent situation.
Is there any $$$ number floating around there? Guy has to be higher end 6 figure if not low end 7 figure good, right?
Haven’t seen any numbers but I would have to think mid to upper 6 figures at least. This is a move up to Europe’s top league.
Proly 600-700 my guess. But dont really know his value there. Back in the day the big guys got the big money.
I thought the Heat were going to put Herro in a trade for Dame then go sign Kyle.
