Nash and Rondo lead the NBA players great auction ... Will anyone in Spain?

What until now seemed no more than a chimera or a remote possibility has become reality with the announcement of the resignation of the players' union. The opportunity to see the stars of the NBA in European courts seems ever closer and the arrival of players such as the Israeli Omri Casspi (recent signing of Maccabi) is just the beginning of a massive landing that could enable European fans enjoy names like Kevin Durant , Pau Gasol and Steve Nash.

In fact, the major players in the NBA already have to work and have begun to move the curriculum they represent over half of Europe for its players are not left without playing for a whole season. Is the case with Bill Duffy, one of the most influential agents in the U.S. market. According to Adrian Wojnarowski, a prestigious NBA analyst for Yahoo, Duffy, who's clients include players like Rajon Rondo or Steve Nash, he had begun to handle bids for their players and could soon be playing in Europe.

Another case is the representative agency Octagon has already begun talks with several teams to try to put some of their constituents such as Rudy Gay or one of the stars of the Warriors, Stephen Curry. Players such as 'grazing' Darren Collison, the number 1 draft pick, Kyrie Irving, or the player the Bobcats, Jordan Hamilton were the first to announce his desire to play in Europe after the resignation of the union.

Some, like Casspi himself, did not wait another day to play for foreign teams. The Israeli has signed for Maccabi Tel Aviv, while Andres Nocioni is committed to Penarol of his country, rejecting an offer from Caja. His signings, as was that of Deron Williams are just the tip of the iceberg of what can go.
