Boykins Now Ninth NBA Player To Head To Euro-League

Filed Under Euro-League, NBA Free Agents | Leave a Comment

“ESPN.com” reported Wednesday that free agent veteran guard Earl Boykins has become the ninth former NBA player to sign overseas since July 1. The much traveled point guard has signed a one year deal to play for Virtus Bologna, reportedly for over $3.5 million. The report states it would make Boykins the highest paid player in Italy.

Boykins has spent ten years playing in the Association, and has played for eight different teams. His greatest success in the NBA came at stops with the Denver Nuggets, and the Milwaukee Bucks. Boykins had a guaranteed contract with Milwaukee for this past season in which he would have been paid $3 million, but took the opt-out clause. He did not sign with a team until December, when he signed with the Charlotte Bobcats, and played just 36 games. Boykins although only 5′5″ is a consummate pro, and was a tough match-up for many point guards in the NBA.
