    JP Macura to Turkey

    Looks like a good opportunity and hope everyone can find their way. This pandemic has ruined sports for so many great players/marginal pros I can't imagine how confusing it is.

    Best of luck to JP, as always. Great player and a guy it would be hard not to love......as long as he’s on YOUR team!

    Strange times to be trying to land a gig like that for sure.

    Turkey has one of the best basketball leagues out there, so its not a bad gig imo.

    I lived in Turkey for 2 years...not a bad place to live either. :)

    But Erdogan.

    Is he as bad as made out to be or is this more press BS?

    And JP is close friends with Kerem Kanter and so maybe he'll have a few contacts there that will make him feel more at home.

    Isn’t Karem prohibited from returning to Turkey? And hasn’t seen his family in years?
