Valanciunas wants to play in Greece? ๐Ÿ‘€



Valanciunas wants to play in Greece? ๐Ÿ‘€

What the hell is going on with the Jonas Valentunis trade? If you didn’t hear, the Nuggets thought they pulled off a steal by trading Daario Saridge, who wasn’t even in the rotation, for Jonas Valenunis, a legit backup big to finally give Joker some rest. But plot twist, Jonas may not even want to be in the NBA anymore. Despite having two years left on his deal in Denver, 10.3 mil next year, and a team option after that, reports came out that Paninikos, a top team in Greece, offered him a three-year, $36 million contract. And apparently JV was seriously considering it. Then it got messy. Greek media reported that Panetikos got verbal confirmation from Yonas’s agent that the Nuggets were going to release him. Meanwhile, the Nuggets told Yonas’s camp three simple words. Honor your contract. Denver was reportedly blindsided. Like, we’re releasing who? No, no, no, no, no. Bonetos is also blindsided. They thought it was all figured out, and Yonas is just caught in the middle. The whole thing’s just been chaotic, and no one knows how it ends. But one thing is clear. JB might be the first guy who’s ever tried to leave the NBA after being traded to a contender.

Jonas Valanciunas might leave the Denver Nuggets to play in Greece

  1. Who gives Af 6 fouls in Denver or 5 in Greece ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท dude is a waste of space legend at the ๐Ÿฆ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  2. Panathinaikos is a huge team in Europe, possible the biggest, and are Euroleague contenders. Jonnas also wants to play as a starter so it makes sense

  3. Nuggets are still far from being a contender. They got rid of a massive problem in MPJ but jokic can only do so much.

  4. If he is smart he will make a title run with joker cant get any better than that. He stayed in sh*t teams and now has a chance and will leave? Better take some iq test

  5. They offered him more money and now heโ€™s happy, do you pay attention to sports, or are you a straight DEI hire, and I hate agreeing with those rightwing-tards, lol

  6. He only wants to go back to Europe Because of his family get tired from trades.
    I hope he stays with Nuggets and win Nba
