Jerebko Not Returning To Former Team In Italy

Aug 20, 2011 11:18 AM

Jonas Jerebko will not return to his former team, Biella of Italy, though the two sides did discuss a deal.

“We talked with him, but he’s a little concerned about an injury and has decided to stay in the U.S. for now,” Atripaldi said.

Jerebko missed the 11-12 season due to an Achilles tendon injury.

“The team has been built without him, but we would have a spot for him if he decides to come because it’s Jonas,” Atripaldi said.

Gordon Unlikely To Play In Eurobasket

Aug 8, 2011 1:55 AM

British Basketball's performance director Chris Spice said it is appearing unlikely that Ben Gordon will be able to compete in the 2011 Eurobasket.

The lockout is causing issues in terms of insurance coverage.

Spice said: "It is difficult and it is complex and if I was a betting man I don't think it is going to happen unfortunately.

"We'll know on Monday but it is looking unlikely.

"In the end we have not been able to afford the same level of cover he would get in a normal year in an NBA deal.

"There is no question in my mind, if the NBA lockout wasn't there Ben would be playing for us this year because the cover would be in place.

"I am 100% certain he will be with us next year if there is no lockout."
