The stakes just got a little higher for the Chicago Bulls if they want to keep Ben Gordon. Â
“It’s possible Gordon would prefer joining a European team over signing the one-year qualifying offer from the Bulls worth $6.4 million. One site pegged CSKA’s offer at $5.5 million. Either way, Gordon would become an unrestricted free agent next summer, when several NBA clubs are expected to have salary-cap room.”

Even if Gordon goes to Russia or anywhere else overseas, it’s not the NBA that is in trouble. Â The NBDL on the other hand could fold up like a tent with this kinda overseas money being thrown at players eventually.
