With Euroleague superstar and Utah Jazz draftee Ante Tomic opting to remain with his Spanish club, FC Barcelona Basquet, many fans have turned their attention German center Tibor Pleiss as a possible replacement. Unfortunately, bringing Pleiss stateside may also prove difficult.
According to a report by Eurohoops, FC Bayern Munich Basketball may be looking to acquire the big man from Barca. The club, which also participates in Euroleague play and won the 2014 Basketball Bundesliga championship, is said to already be in talks with Pleiss’ camp.
The seven-foot-two Pleiss (or Pleiß if we’re being proper) has been playing in reserve role behind Tomic with Barcelona.
