Von Wafer comming back to the nba?

Former Rockets guard Von Wafer is close to leaving Olympiakos and returning to the NBA with the Memphis Grizzlies, one source told HoopsHype.com. Wafer’s European agents are working today to rescind his contract with the Greek powerhouse. The 6-foot-5 guard could soon afterwards join the Grizzlies for the rest of the season, the source said.

Wafer’s departure is apparently of mutual agreement. Wafer was due to make $2 million with Olympiakos this year but the team’s coach, Greek legend Panagiotis Giannakis, wasn’t playing him for the last few games. Management didn’t want to have that type of investment sitting on the bench, according to the source, so both sides decided to come to a quick resolution.

Supposedly he's heading to the grizzlies.

He did alright for us last season, yall think the rockets should try and get him back if he's on the market?

Definitely dont need him with Budinger

For all the love we had for Von, we still hated him for his defense and A.I. like offensive complex. Budinger is basically the same scorer, but plays defense and passes. If we sign Wafer it will stunt Budinger’s growth if Wafer plays, and if Wafer doesnt play what the point of signing him?
