Being accustomed to both worlds now, having played for over a decade in the NBA and having returned to Europe last summer to sign with Olympiacos, Evan Fournier launched a proposal.
Eurohoops’ Aris Barkas commented on X that with European basketball’s free agency kicking off for media as well right after the EuroLeague Final Four, the on-court action in the different domestic leagues throughout the Old Continent gets overshadowed.
Olympiacos‘ guard suggested something beneficial. “Having a Free Agency date opening would benefit everyone. Players and teams. Wait until everyone’s season is over, and let’s get to business,” he replied.
