And while Snyder isn't in camp, Emens said his client is considering three offers from international teams -- one in Europe and two in Asia -- and is in conversation with one NBA team, which he declined to name. Emens said he expects Snyder to make a decision sometime next week on where he will play this season.

Snyder averaged 8.4 points (on 51.6 percent shooting), 4.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 27 games with Minnesota last season. The four-year NBA veteran became an unrestricted free agent in late June when the Timberwolves declined to extend him qualifying offer.

Man, you would think that he would be able to find some NBA squad. Snyder has some skills. He would do well over seas though. He's a tank.

I liked the guy, if we were undermanned with our roster with like 13 players, I would be begging for us to sign him. Straight hustle player.

He didn't seem too interested in Staying in Minnesota during the year last year. Guess he thought more teams would be calling. His agent even though he would get a starting job somewhere but probably didn't think it would be overseas.

seems like we're finally passing the phase of any warm body getting the MLE

we got Gomes and Craig for less than 7 million combined. There was a time when I thought they'd get that each.

I don't know what the deal w/ Kirk was, but he sounded prepared NOT to re-up w/ the Wolves right when he first got here for some reason. Must've had a "play the season out and see what happens" conversation w/ the F.O. and gotten upset about it.

I'm thinking the only NBA offer hes getting is a fairly small deal. I can't honestly imagine what team it is though.

I'll say this, I'd rather the Bobcats went after Kirk Snyder then Shannon Brown.
