For marginal players like David Andersen, the goldmine is not in the NBA but in the lucrative European circuit. The 6-11 native of Australia is a two-year NBA veteran, who has seen action for the Houston Rockets, Toronto Raptors and New Orleans Hornets, with career averages of 4.9 points per game and 2.8 rebounds per outing in 103 total games. Andersen is a Dutch passport holder and that makes him ideal for European clubs. Greek powerhouse Olympiacos is reportedly all set to tender an offer that will be hard to refuse for Andersen, who made $ 2.5 million last season with the Hornets, according to The Hoop.
"(David) Andersen's contract makes him 2.5 million dollars, which is money that Olympiacos could easily afford for that kind of player. Andersen has a Danish passport too so that makes him even more appealing for European teams and in Olympiacos they're looking for another worthy player for their front-line."
