After weeks of rumors and speculation, ACB Superstar Juan Carlos Navarro will join his fellow Spanaird Pau Gasol in not only the NBA, but on the same team. The Washington Wizards, whom drafted Navarro in 2002 with the 40th pick overall, finally agreed on terms in sending the rights to La Bomba to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for a future first round draft pick. The move brought together the two Spanish stars of their respective leagues. “I am really relieved,” Navarro said, “The fact that Pau (Gasol) will be there will help me on and off the court” Originally posted 08/17/2007
