Jonas Valanciunas, the Lithuanian center, is officially the new player of the Denver Nuggets, and the saga around his transfer seems to be over. He planned to terminate his contract with Denver and join Greek Panathinaikos, giving up guaranteed money, but that plan fell through. Last season, he played for Washington and Sacramento, averaging 11.5 points and 8 rebounds, then 8.7 points and 7 rebounds per game. Denver tweeted “Welcome, Jonas!” removing all doubts. But is this the end of the drama or just the beginning of a new one? American media are still buzzing about this, and it remains to be seen how the Lithuanian center will fit into the team and if he will meet expectations. If you thought the transfer was done, think again — in sports, like in life, nothing is certain. What do you think? Will Valanciunas be a key player for Denver or just another player in the lineup? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s optimistic and who’s skeptical!
