GMoe Looking Into Overseas?

[Pugz]

WASHINGTON -- Add Greg Monroe and Greivis Vasquez to the growing list of NBA players actively debating whether to take their basketball talents overseas. The former stars at Georgetown and Maryland, respectively, did not figure to be contemplating playing abroad after successful rookie seasons. Funny what a lockout can do. They also were not the only ballers in the Kenner League weighing foreign options or actually following through with them.

For those debating such a passport-required move, there is also reason to believe that time could be running out if they want to act. The annual summer league at McDonough Arena on the Georgetown University campus is an event where divergent paths in the world of professional basketball meet. The oddity in 2011, with the NBA’s labor dispute looking like it could be a lengthy one, is seemingly all hardwoods roads are pointing anywhere but stateside. That goes for those that have shown they can play in the world’s top league like Monroe.

“It’s something I’m still thinking about," said Monroe, who shined for the Detroit Pistons last season. "It’s definitely an option.”

“If nothing changes, I definitely do think you’ll see a lot more guys going overseas,” Monroe said.

Barring injury, getting a bit more experience out there can't hurt I'm sure.
