Mirza Begic had a break out season in Zalgiris
It is reported that Real were offering a €500,000 buyout, but Zalgiris declined the proposal immediately and will not give Begic the letter of release, which would allow the Slovenian big man to sign with another club.
The Spanish side is not expected to raise their bid, therefore the Euroleague season for Begic is probably over as the deadline for new player registration ends later in the day.
Begic and Zalgiris still had a one-and-a-half year contract remaining, when the player unilaterally left Lithuania. Last year’s LKL runners-up are not going to give the letter of release and will go to court with the player.
