As the San Antonio Spurs wait for Manu Ginobili (to retire or continue playing) and Jonathon Simmons (to sign an offer sheet in restricted free agency) to decide their futures, overseas, Spurs international prospect Adam Hanga was waiting to see if he’d make the jump to the NBA at age 28.
Well, according to three different reports, Hanga will be staying in Spain until 2020. Hanga signed an offer sheet with FC Barcelona for 3-years, $7.5 million Euros, which is the equivalent to $8.5 million US dollars.
If Ginobili and Simmons would have returned to San Antonio, the most the Spurs could offer Hanga in the first year of a deal was $815K.
