Stephon MarburyFormer New York Knicks point guard Stephon Marbury is no longer looking to play in the NBA this season and is now gearing towards playing in Europe for the remainder of the season. He is looking to play in Spain, having requested advice on playing there from Tim Shea, advisor to Winnersfactory. Marbury is currently being trained by Derrick Whitenburg who recruited Marbury to Georgia Tech.
It is unclear what level of interest teams in Europe will have and what type of price Marbury will demand to play overseas, but a "feeler" has been put out to see if there is interest in the enigmatic guard.
Marbury is eager to play somewhere so it's possible he would accept a deal making less to get back on the court.
The former Olympian and NBA superstar is not even on the radar for teams who have been depleted with injuries. Marbury played limited minutes last year for the Boston Celtics and his performance was unimpressive averaging 3.8 ppg in 23 games.
