Cleveland Cavaliers' draft pick Christian Eyenga reportedly re-signs with
Spanish team

A Spanish Web site reported Wednesday that Cavaliers' first-round draft
pick Christian Eyenga has signed a new contract with DKV Joventut in Spain.

Sportando.net, which tracks basketball in Europe, said the 6-5 shooting guard
signed a three-year contract less than a week after completing summer league
with the Cavs.

The Plain Dealer was unable to independenly confirm the report Wednesday
night. In an interview last week, Eyenga declined to discuss his contract
situation. The Cavs will maintain his rights but it is still unclear whether
the contract has opt-out clauses or a significant buyout to come to the NBA.

After drafting him with the 30th overall pick in the first round on June 25,
the Cavs seemed content to let Eyenga develop over in Europe for at least a
year. After seeing him perform in the Vegas Summer League, where he averaged
8.8 points and shot 47 percent, a source said the Cavs wanted to sign him to
his slotted two-year, $2 million contract so he could work on his game
spliting time between Cleveland and Erie, Pa., in the NBA Development League.



Eyenga, 20, was a free agent in Europe after spending most of last
year with Prat Joventut, the Spanish franchise's junior team. NBA teams are
allowed to contribute up tp $500,000 for a buyout but sometimes players sign
deals with massive buyouts in exchange for more salary. As a result, numerous
former picks are stuck in Europe because they can't afford to pay their
buyouts with the slotted salaries NBA teams can pay.

This is a major issue for another DKV Joventut player, Minnesota
Timberwolves' first-round pick Ricky Rubio. His contract with Joventut
contains a buyout around $6 million and it is proving to be a significant
stumbling block for him to get to the NBA. Wednesday, Rubio announced he was
leaving Joventut but may not be coming to the NBA.

Because Eyenga knew he was a first-round pick when before entering the deal
-- unlike Rubio, who signed with the franchise as a young teen -- he may have
been able to insert a more-favorable buyout clause if the report is accurate.

還未證實
但若騎士跳過山羊、布丁、夏天，還有夏季聯盟表現搶眼的2輪選秀Blair、Cunningham
只為了對馬刺擺胡先選Eyenga這位超級潛力股
卻落得跟灰狼一樣下場
真的好可惜>.<
Ferry你還我山羊、布丁和夏天啦...T~T(哭)
