"Barcelona's involvement gives Spanish guard Juan Carlos Navarro, recently signed after an unhappy period with the Memphis Grizzlies, the opportunity to face NBA opponents again, while the "Barca" roster also features Australian forward David Andersen, a 2002 second-round draft pick of the Atlanta Hawks who signed from CSKA, and Fran Vazquez, a center whose rights are owned by Orlando.

Barcelona will be looking to repeat its 2006 success when it defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 104-99 in an exhibition that formed part of the NBA's Europe Live tour. "

it should be fun. lots of interest in these euroleague teams this offseason.
