Facu Campazzo’s agent Claudio Villanueva talked about the rumor mill surrounding the Argentinian guard’s name in regards to the NBA in a recent interview with basketplus.com.
Although there is ‘low to moderate’ interest in the player by the Dallas Mavericks per reports, his agent explains that there is nothing concrete to date:
“That (interest) was born from a tweet that came out of Croatia that spoke of Campazzo in the NBA. I’m going to tell you something, just to be clear. In the past two years, during the season, NBA scouts have spoken to me a thousand times ξθστ to ask. If you add to that the player continues to evolve… Campazzo, I said it three years ago, is the best guard in Europe, and being the best guard in Europe means being one of the three best players in Europe. If the NBA does not keep an eye on one of the best, it would be crazy”, said Villanueva.
“There is nothing concrete, there is nothing spoken, and also today the NBA does not know how they will end and if they will end the season, how the next season will play out or start. They don’t know the salary cap. So if you tell me, did they ask you about Campazzo? I tell you yes, a thousand times. But today there is nothing concrete”, he added.
Interestingly, a potential move to the NBA would require Campazzo to pay 5.275M of his 6M buyout clause on his current contract with Real Madrid.
