I'm seeing a lot of foreign language chatter on twitter implying Pierre is going to Turkey (well someone else on twitter says that's what they're saying )

quote:

Savas Birdal ?@savasbdl 8m

Pierre Jackson signs with Fenerbahçe Ülker, says @Hurriyet. Player will be in Turkey tomorrow.


Maybe Demps couldn't find a trade he wanted and Pierre needs to get paid? Could be a bunch of garbage too. I couldn't find a reference to Pierre on the Hurriyet twitter that was originally referrenced. LINK

UPDATE:

Sportando ?@sportando 7m

I can confirm the report that Pierre Jackson has signed with @FBahceUlker_. LINK was first to report that


Sportando is pretty legit concerning euroball info.

If true, its just PJ trying to make a little bit of money to hold him over until going to the NBA next year.

Pierre mentioned going overseas to get paid if he couldn't crack the NBA this season.

Sounds like a familiar plan he may have grown to see the wisdom of.

Yep. On their wiki page it says he is from the Republic of Macedonia.

Hope they don't beat the stuffing out of him. Hopefully it's all gravy. You really don't want him to just ham it up overseas and ruin his career.


Thanksgiving.

Pierre is a prototyical American player who has a long career in Europe in his future. He just isn't big enough to be a quality NBA guy.
