“Now we have reached the Euroleague. Where should I go?” said Claver. “I can’t explain how big is the emotion when you win a title with your life team” added Claver who was drafted 22nd overall by the Portland Trail Blazers in the 2009 NBA Draft. “I don’t think at NBA right now. I renewed by contract with Valencia because I want to grow and improve with them”.

After watching how things have gone for Sergio Rodriguez and Rudy Fernandez, you can’t really blame Claver for not being in a huge rush to get here. Maybe it’s time to take a short break from drafting Euro’s in the 20′s of the first round, even if it’s nice not having to pay their guaranteed contracts now, or possibly ever.
