Croatian Newspaper Says There's a 99% Chance Dario Saric Comes to the Sixers
Here is where I apologize in advance for some wonky Google translate stuff.
According to a newspaper in Croatia, the Sportske Novosti (or, Sports News) has a 99% chance of joining the Sixers next season. Here’s what they said [Edited slightly for clarification]:
By the end of the season in Turkey, and the sixth game of the final series, Dario Saric has apparently concluded the first phase of his career. After two years in Efes, Saric’s career should continue in the NBA…
I can not confirm because of more talks with Efes about compensation, but Saric is 99 percent to go to Philadelphia… This summer in the contract placed a fixed compensation which is not less than 700 and no higher than 900 thousand euros… next season we see Saric playing for the Sixers.
Even lil’ Bryan gets a shoutout right about where my Google translate goes off the hinges:
“Saric we want and expect already. We told him that at the meeting in Istanbul” – said Bryan Colangelo, a few months ago the president of basketball operations and GM Sixers… the overall figure could round off the accumulated about two and a half million euros.”
So there you have it, Dario has a 99% chance of coming over. Also, my first translation attempt said something about a ton of fruit, so maybe that was a hidden hint that Dario’s diet is at least better than Embiid’s.
