Source: Childress to stay in Greece

[.GR]

Three different sources I've spoken to in recent days insist that they don't expect Josh Childress to return to the NBA this summer (he has until July 15 to opt out of his Greek contract or remain there for another season). The dynamics of his situation in the NBA haven't changed from last summer. He's still a restricted free agent and would be subject to dealing with a Hawks organization that couldn't get a deal done with him last summer. So it was a serious miscalculation of mine to blindly assume he'd bolt Europe for the comfort of the states.

Anyone find his stat line?

I kind of forgot about the dude, but if he's content being in Greece, good for him. As long as this doesnt start a mass movement of unhappy role players to leave.

24 MPG, more than he'd get anywhere in the NBA
