Just curious if a team drafts a player who doesn't want to play for the team who drafted him. I am sure they can go to Europe and play. Does the team that drafted them lose rights to said player after the following years draft or what?

i think it's until another team purchases them or the team choose to relinquish them.

I seem to remember the magic having some prospect that they still own the rights to. Vasquez?

damn that's a long time.

So what's the deal with Rubio, heard on ESPN that he doesn't want to play in Minn or maybe his Spanish league team won't let him go? Are they going to just trade him or something.
