Orlando deducted Mozgov from the team

In the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the first time since 2000, there may not be players from Russia. The Orlando Club expelled the center Timothy Mozgov. The contract of the 32-year-old player was designed until 2020, according to which he should receive $ 16 million a year.

"Magic" will still have to pay the guaranteed part of the salary. But in the club’s payment statement, it can be distributed for several years.

Since 2010, Mozgov has played in the NBA in six clubs-New York, Denver, Cleveland, Los Angeles Lakers, Brooklyn and Orlando. In 2016, Mozgov became the NBA champion in Cleveland Cavaliers together with Lebron James.

Last summer, the brains were first exchanged from Brooklyn to Charlotte, and then to Orlando. Last season, the Russian did not spend a single match for Magik because of the injury.
