Rubio to Stay in Spain
Marca.com is reporting that Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio is planning to stay in Europe this year and likely for another year after that.
The article’s source is Rubio’s father.
Chandler Back on the Block
Hornets center Tyson Chandler is on the trading block according to the Times-Picayune.
Chandler was traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder last year but ended back in New Orleans after failing the physical.
Sources told the newspaper that Chandler was involved in trade talks with the Cleveland Cavaliers before the team acquired Shaquille O’Neal.
Teams who may still be interested in Chandler include the San Antonio Spurs, Washington Wizards and possibly the Portland Trail Blazers.
Three More Years For O’Neal?
Shaquille O’Neal said on ESPN last night during draft coverage that he was willing to do anything to get his fifth championship. O’Neal said he was excited to play with Lebron James next year.
O’Neal ‘tweeted’ on his Twitter.com account, “My numbers are not good enough to retire 3 more years left.”
In response to the O’Neal trade, Orlando Magic Center Dwight Howard tweeted that he felt the trade was made as a direct response to stop him and that he looked forward to the challenge.
