McClung picks Girona over EuroLeague offers
Three-time Slam Dunk Contest winner Mac McClung says he turned down more than 10 EuroLeague offers and chose Girona after talks with Moncho Fernandez.
The American guard, a three-time winner of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest, explained the decision himself.
"I told my agent: 'I don't want to chase the biggest contract.' For me it doesn't matter. Over the last two years I have received more than 10 offers from EuroLeague clubs. But my agent and I decided to follow our hearts," McClung said.
The conversations with head coach Moncho Fernandez and general manager Fernando San Emeterio left the strongest impression. "I thought: 'I think I'm home,'" McClung said.
