we should bring him back

He can shoot the 3 now too. I think he has a huge buyout in his contract though and he's supposedly making $10 mil per tax free in Russia, he won't be back in the NBA until he's 31

From an article last December http://www.basketballinsiders.com/sonny-weems-nando-de-colo-starring-overseas/

“I was open to going back to the NBA, but the offers weren’t what I was looking for as far as money and contract lengths go,” Weems told Basketball Insiders during a one-on-one chat.

After putting up career-highs for the Raptors during the 2010-2011 season with 9.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, Weems headed across the pond for the fist time. He signed with Zalgiris Kaunas of Lithuania (home for former Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Will Cherry). It wasn’t a smooth transition, but over time, Weems re-invented himself as an elite all-around player.

“He has the complete package,” said a longtime Euroleague coach.

Weems then spent time under former Los Angeles Lakers adviser and current San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Ettore Messina at CSKA Moscow. He became the go-to player for the Russians, but ultimately missed a game-winning three-pointer that could’ve sent Moscow to the Euroleague Finals. He averaged 12.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.7 dimes over 29 Euroleague appearances last season.

So what’s keeping him out of the NBA?

“I couldn’t really pursue the NBA because some of the teams I spoke to wanted to wait and I didn’t want to wait,” Weems said. “I had a couple offers from a few teams in the league. One of the more serious organizations was the Atlanta Hawks, offering a fully-guaranteed deal. CSKA, however, presented me with a great offer that I couldn’t refuse.”

Curious as to what a “great offer” means? Well, according to sources, Weems inked a long-term $10 million agreement with CSKA, cementing himself as the highest-paid player overseas.

“I’m 28 years old, I’m not getting any younger, and a basketball career is short,” Weems said. “CSKA is pretty much my team. I have a lot of control over here and can basically do whatever I want. I think I made a smart move career-wise.”

Are we watching the same JV? He's improved by leaps and bounds. He's finally understanding how to track rebounds and where to be on the floor on offence...the defence still needs work, though.

JV and terrance are the textbook definitions of busts... I hate them more than I ever hated Bargnani. If Bargs developed on this up and coming raptors team he mightve been somebody. I hate lou will too but im not gonna act like hes not fire. These guys esp t ross worship lou will and neglect to ask why that somalian nikka has been on like 6 teams already

Man I miss Sonny Weems

I remember when Weems, Derozan and Johnson were forced to change their name from Young Gunz to something else because of the Gilbert Arenas situation:mjlol:

Edit: Also, they need to fire this fukking faq Matt Devlin that nikka is so fukking annoying. Bring Chuck Swirsky back
