[外電] Source: Buyout of Rubio's contract may be reduced

The prospect of drafting Ricky Rubio is about to become less risky.
選Rubio的風險越來越小了。

A source close to Rubio said the $6.6 million buyout of the Spanish point
guard's contract with his current team, DKV Joventut, was likely to be
reduced Sunday or today to an amount where "he knows he'll be able to make
the payments."
根據內線消息Rubio的買斷金將會減少到他可以付得出來的數目。

Such a resolution will, in effect, clear a major obstacle for teams
considering Rubio as their first pick in Thursday's NBA draft but that have
concerns about the financial albatross to which he has been tied. That, of
course, includes the Kings.

Assuming the arrangement is finalized as expected, Rubio would plan on
joining his team at the NBA Summer League in July. Yet while Rubio's visit to
Sacramento last week was his first with an NBA team in America, the Kings are
no longer alone in that regard.

Rubio – who measured at 6-foot-5 in shoes with a 6-7 3/4 wingspan in his
Kings physical – visited with Oklahoma City representatives Saturday in Los
Angeles. The Thunder, which picks third, was allowed to examine his DKV
Joventut contract, just as the Kings had, to gain a better understanding of
those particulars. The visit would appear to increase the chances of the
Thunder opting for Rubio, if only because the uncertainty that loomed before
the visit almost certainly meant it would go another direction.
Rubio禮拜六和雷霆的代表一起遊LA。也看了Rubio的合約，為了更了解他的現況。

While Memphis, which holds the second pick, visited with Rubio in Spain
before the Kings or Thunder, the Grizzlies did not see the contract, nor did
any other team. Rubio could make more visits, however, as his camp surely
will explore all options in the coming days. Among the possibilities,
Minnesota is believed to be interested in moving up from its No. 6 spot to
select Rubio.
Rubio陣容接下來應該會看所有的選項。灰狼也被相信有興趣向上交易獲得Rubio。

Rubio's eventual NBA team is permitted to pay only $500,000 of a buyout,
meaning the player will pay the rest. Because he made approximately $97,000
last season with DKV Joventut, his representatives had asked an arbitrator to
settle the matter while claiming the buyout is disproportionate to his
salary. They also claimed Rubio never signed his contract when it was drafted
– he was 16 at the time – although he reportedly did sign an addendum last
season.
最後選到他的球隊只需要付50萬元，其他自己付。

Yet the Kings continue to look at all options for their first pick. Their
sights also are set on several other prospects who were in Sacramento for a
workout Sunday: Syracuse's Jonny Flynn, Memphis' Tyreke Evans and Davidson's
Stephen Curry.
但國王持續在看第一個籤的其他選擇。包括Flynn、Evans、Curry

Coming off a franchise-low 17-win season, the Kings, according to league
sources, also are willing to discuss deals for anybody on their roster. That
includes shooting guard Kevin Martin, who previously was seen as untouchable
but who continues to attract significant attention from around the league.
來源指出，國王願意談論任何人。包括KM(what!!!!!!!!!!!!!)。
