Реал Мадрид клуб Марио Хезоньяг NBA-д явахыг нь зөвшөөрөхгүй байгаагаас болж талуудын тохиролцоо удааширч байна.
Кливлэнд Кавальерс довтлогч Марио Хезоньятай нэг жилийн хугацаатай, хамгийн бага цалингийн гэрээ байгуулахаар тохиролцсон ч асуудал үүсээд байна. Реал Мадрид клубын зүгээс тоглогчийг NBA-д явах гэрээний хугацаагаа хэтрүүлсэн гэж үзэж байгаа аж. Хезоньягийн гэрээнд зааснаар тэрээр долдугаар сарын 20-ны дотор NBA-д явах шийдвэрээ гаргах ёстой байсан ч, Кливлэнд Кавальерстай долдугаар сарын 26-нд л тохиролцоонд хүрсэн байна.
Сэтгүүлч Марк Стайны мэдээлснээр, Кливлэнд Кавальерс Леброн Жэймсийг Филадельфи-76-д элссэний дараа Хезоньяг авч үлдэхээр ажиллаж байна. Гэвч Испанийн баг тоглогчийг чөлөөлөхөөс татгалзаж, гэрээний хугацаа дууссан гэж маргаж байгаа юм.
Одоогоор талууд энэ асуудлыг шийдвэрлэхийн тулд хэлэлцээ хийж байна. Энэхүү маргааныг эцэслэн шийдвэрлэх нэг арга нь Реал Мадрид клубт нөхөн төлбөр төлөх эсвэл санхүүгийн зохицуулалт хийх хувилбар байж болох юм.

The Cleveland Cavaliers formally agreed to a deal to sign forward Mario Hezonja earlier this week. If only it were that simple. Hezonja is currently having trouble being released from Real Madrid as the Spanish club argues that Hezonja missed his window to leave for the NBA.
Hezonja had an NBA out clause in his contract that was to be exercised by July 20. That has become a point of contention since he missed that window and did not secure an NBA deal until July 26.
“The Cavs and other teams have been pursuing Hezonja this offseason in hopes of capitalizing on a July 20 NBA out in his Real Madrid pact,” said Marc Stein. “The Spanish giants have reportedly pushed back on releasing the Croatian forward since he did not have his NBA team lined up until July 26.”
Cleveland has been linked to Hezonja since earlier in the summer, but, understandably, was holding out on making a move until LeBron James had announced his next decision. The Cavs were hoping to land a big fish. Instead, they chose the consolation prize of taking Hezonja on a minimum deal. That’s why this process didn’t advance until James signed with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Does this mean the Cavs will miss out on Hezonja, too? Probably not.
Stein also reported this today:
“Cleveland has yet to formally sign Mario Hezonja but is “working through” the needed steps, one source close to the process tells @TheSteinLine, to make the deal official. Hezonja and the Cavaliers agreed to a one-year minimum deal Sunday after LeBron James chose Philadelphia.”
Real Madrid will argue that Hezonja did not notify them in time of his buyout window. How far they are willing to argue is undetermined. But one potentially simple solution would be paying a fine and sending money back to Real Madrid to settle everything.
If you’re thinking this feels like a lot to deal with for a minimum player, you’re probably right. We’d all like this process to be simplified. Still, there’s a chance it’s all handled swiftly and over before we know it.
