Reportedly signed with Panathinaikos.

There is supposedly a buy-out clause for if he stays in this draft and gets drafted and wants to go to that team later down the road.
This could be very intriguing for the Wolves who don't want to add too many rookies next year. Unfortunately the pay at the #28 pick is probably too poor to lure him over, so he'll probably be a very high 2nd rounder. If we could trade 28 for 31 and take Calathes, so we have negotiation room, I'd love it. The top pick in the 2nd is a pretty valuable one, though so I don't know if the Kings do it.
...or just taking Omri Casspi at 28 and leaving him over seas could work...
