Ben Gordon considering playing in Europe
Ben Gordon of the Chicago Bulls told the Daily Herald that he is considering playing in Europe as he has british citizenship. The UK basketball federation traced the roots of the London-born NBA player and issued him with british citizenship so that he can play for the British National team. The same thing was done for his teammate Luol Deng, who is a sudanese fugitive, and also for Pops-Mensa Bonsu.of DKV.
Ben Gordon said that he will consider moving to Europe now that the Euro is on the rise and having seen the example of Josh Childress other players might be tempted as well.
Ben Gordon averaged 18.6 points 3.1 rebounds and 3 assists in 72 games with the Chicago Bulls last season.
