The National Basketball Association’s (NBA) club will become a free agent for Phoenix’s “Dog” guard Vasilije Micičs, according to journalist Gerald Burg.
In the summer of 2023, Micick signed a three -year contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder for $ 23.5 million. However, only the first two years of the contract were guaranteed, while the third, the next, was with the club’s option to continue cooperation.
As reported in Burg, the Dog will not use this opportunity, which will allow Micick to become a free agent and look for another job. The Serb deserves $ 8.1 million next season.
However, such a “dog” action is considered formality, as Micich would probably not have remained on the team. It has been estimated to have returned to Europe for a long time, as he has been spectacular offers by several Euroleague Grands.
Micick, a two -time Euroleague champion, two -time Final Four’s most valuable player, once recognized as the MVP of the whole season, made his debut in the world’s strongest league in the aforementioned Thunder. In February last year, he was replaced with David Bertan on Charlotte’s “Hornets,” but this season he came to the “Dog” unit.
In total, Serb has played 101 games in the NBA, with an average of 6.8 points and 3.9 assists.
