Zalgiris Kaunas has made a significant move in the market with a major offer for Carsen Edwards, according to journalist Alessandro Luigi Maggi. The Lithuanian club's proposal is reportedly just under $2 million in salary.
The American point guard, a former Purdue player, just completed a high-impact season with Virtus Bologna, establishing himself as one of the most reliable scorers in European basketball. Edwards averaged 17 points per game in the Italian LBA and 17.3 points in the EuroLeague, figures that explain the strong interest surrounding his future.
Zalgiris is looking to make a statement with an ambitious move that would significantly strengthen their perimeter. Edwards' potential arrival would bring a player with the ability to create his own points, punish off the dribble, and handle a high offensive volume at the elite European level.
For now, there is no deal in place, but the financial offer confirms Zalgiris Kaunas' intention to compete for one of the most attractive names on the EuroLeague market.
