President of CSKA Moscow Andrei Vatutin confirms that team's guard Alexey Shved is going to continue his career in the NBA. Izvestija quotes Vatutin: "At the moment, I can say that Alexey is leaving CSKA for the NBA. For him, it is not about the money, but about the chance to test himself at the highest level of competition. In my opinion, he's going too early, but I guess the player and the agent know best."

Two more player, though, are ready to… defect from Russia to the NBA. We are not referring to Andrei Kirilenko who hasn’t made up his mind yet, but to Andrey Vorontsevich and Alexey Shved (photo). Vorontsevich, a 24 years old forward, is heading to Oklahoma City Thunder, where former CSKA Moscow player and assistant coach David Vanderpool is now the head of scouting. EuroHoops.net

Shved, also 24 years old, had a break out season and he is in talks with two NBA teams, according to sources from Russia. His decision to leave CSKA Moscow may have to do with his turbulent relationship with coach Ettore Messina from his previous tenure in the team. EuroHoops.net

Blatt compared Shved’s situation to that of Jeremy Pargo, whom he coached at Israeli team Maccabi Tel Aviv before Pargo moved to the Memphis Grizzlies in 2011 but failed to break into the team. “I told him ‘You need to wait one more season, to be a lead player another year before you make the jump.’ He went, he didn’t play a minute the whole season, he didn’t even dress in the playoffs,” Blatt said.

In an interview with Sports.ru in Moscow on Tuesday, Shved's agent Obrad Fimic said while no official NBA offers are on the table at this moment, five teams have shown interest in his client -- Atlanta, Houston, Oklahoma City, Minnesota and Memphis. As it stands, Shved remains under contract with CSKA but all signs point to him making the jump to the NBA, despite Fimic refuting a recent report that his client was asking upwards of $10 to $12 million on a three-year deal. Ridiculous Upside

Interest in Shved peaked in mid-winter and later in February Pete Philo, an international scout for the Minnesota Timberwolves, was on hand in Moscow to check in on Shved according to a league contact in Moscow. But the question remains how will Shved's game translate to the NBA? Ridiculous Upside
