When Tomas Satoransky signed a four year extension with Barcelona recently, everyone believed that the Washington Wizards were out of the picture for the near future.

Well, this is not the case. According to Eurohoops sources from the US, the Wizards have decided to offer a multiyear guaranteed deal to Satoransky and pay the buy out of his new contract with Barcelona. The price of the buy out clause for this summer is $1,5 million.

After a great Eurobasket tournament with the Czech Republic and a good Euroleague season, Satoransky is ready to take the next step in his career. Meanwhile, Barcelona is already searching the market for a new starting point guard. The first target of the team is All Euroleague team member Malcolm Delaney, who is going to be a free agent, but his priority is expected also to be the NBA. Barcelona, however, will have enough money to spend in order to lure him, since the team will be able to use the buy out of Satoransky for this purpose and also the money which were going to be spend on the Czech’s contract.
