Barcelona, despite still having Tyrese Rice under contract, wants to have a new starting point guard and Phil Pressey according to multiple Spanish reports is their target.

The first big target of Barcelona was Shane Larkin who decided to sign with the Celtics, and Pressey, a former Celtic, seems to be now the main candidate for the job.

The 26 years old guard according to the same reports is willing to make the jump to Europe and Barcelona’s new coach Sito Alonso, who worked with a similar “rookie” last season in Baskonia, believes that he can be the ideal starting point guard,

Pressey played last season in the Development League with the Santa Cruz Warriors averaging 18 points, 8.1 assists and 5.3 rebounds per game.
